Monday is Memorial Day in the States, so I’ll be taking the day off to do patriotic things like (unintentionally) fry myself to a crisp and (unintentionally) burn some hamburgers on the grill. See you Tuesday, lovahs.

Boxsal Picnic Trio Collection

Today is definitely not the day for a picnic (thunderstorms and tornadoes, anyone?), but I’d love it if a boy showed up at my doorstep on a sunny 75 º day for a surprise outing and one of these in hand. Major points.

Grill About Town

I can hardly believe we’re a week into May already, where have the first four months of the year gone? And just like that, patio season is upon us and cooking out in the backyard (or on the balcony, or in a park, or on a table) is on the horizon. And yes, it’s “cooking out” not “barbecuing” – that’s a whole different ballgame. I have both a gas grill (thanks for the hand me down, Mom!) and small charcoal grill, how do you cook in the out of doors?
