Western Flair, Rocky Mountain Air, Let's Cook
My two Webers are definitely front and center stage this weekend. I plan to grill, then I’m going to grill and then I think I’ll grill some more. Let’s take a look at this grilled shrimp recipe.

Los Olivos Cafe Chicken Couscous Salad…made at home. Have you seen the movie “Sideways”? It’s one of those movies that you either love or hate.

Remember your first bicycle? I think it must have been about 3rd grade when I received my beautiful purple Schwinn. I remember how uneasy I felt the first time my dad let go of the handle bars while running along side of me, for my first solo trip without the training wheels. I remember my mom watching nervously
A BLT Cheddar Burger in the middle of the week? How do I justify that? I usually save such indulgences for the weekend, serving healthier fare during the week. Justification #1: Serve it with a beautiful Citrus Salad (recipe below). By the way, that upper left pink stuff is an overly-ripe grapefruit that I mangled trying to get
