BBQ

For the last 19 months anytime we (well Me) has wanted a BBQed meal we have had to either go to my parents or wait to be invited somewhere. When my ex left he took the BBQ with him (to sit in storage and then be sold???, spiteful ...YES)
Well this past weekend my parents picked me up a new to me BBQ!!!!

It's small, perfect for me and the boys

Now I will admit, I've always had a fear of starting BBQ's....no idea why?

My Dad promised me and showed me not once but twice that the starter button worked (normally they don't after the first year of owning them...but it could have been the person assembling them too? 😜)

The only problem is the grill itself, isn't in the best if shape...was never taken care of properly (by that I mean cleaned...yes people you need to clean the grill when your done cooking). Do he did the best he could, as did I, to get all the cakes on crusty, gross, burnt food off. But for now I will have to wrap the grill in tin foil till I can get a new grill or maybe, just possibly a new BBQ (once they all go on sale in a couple weeks!)

So today for lunch, we had BBQ hot dogs! Everyone's favourite πŸ˜‹


Not to sound all girly and helpless but I NEVER BBQ...ever. I've always had a male around to take care of grilling duty!

Even with my ex gone, either my Dad or Paul (bestie hubby) does the grilling. 
I forgot how quick hot dog actually cook ...ekk 
Thankful cause I was cooking in tin foil I could smell them. I got back in time before they got to bad!

The boys were happy, I was happy and we all had a quick, easy, not to heat my house (which at this point wouldn't be bad...litre cool here the last couple days) lunch!!!

Nathan's plate...still think he may be the only 3 yr old that dips in mustard over ketchup???
Mine with a side of salad!

Note: my new to me dishes!!! I've dropped so many dinner plate as of late that I couldn't feed my family lunch and dinner with out having to do dishes...which normal is ok but someday, I just don't have time to eh dishes between meal!
