The Monthly

Well, here we are on the first Tuesday of the month, and we all know what that means! Group barbecue on the river ... except ... they've closed off the park by the river and we've had to find a new location for the next 6-8 months while they build the controversial boat ramp near the Lions Park.

Our only other option is at the other end of town in a park on the waterfront, but the water and beach are obscured by trees and bushes, so we don't have the lovely views of the water and the sunsets that the Lions Park affords us.

Almost everybody was available tonight, so it was a noisy and happy group with lots to talk about. I wonder, if the people in the houses across the road, were disturbed by our excitement?

I made a delicious salad that I plucked from Pinterest this afternoon. It was Roquefort Pear Salad and it was even better than I expected! I replaced the Roquefort cheese with Feta cheese and I did my pecans on a tray in the oven with maple syrup and himalayan salt.

ALL of the dishes on the table (we all contribute a plate of something) were delicious and I commented that the entire meal was better than restaurant quality. We make a great team!

Now it's almost midnight and I have a big day tomorrow, so I'm off to bed.

Nite all.
