Spontaneous Barbeques = the best thing ever


It's official, I'm declaring this the summer of the Spontaneous Barbeque.




We've had two of them in the past two weeks, and both have been so lovely that I am going to take steps to ensure that they happen all summer long.




The necessary ingredients for a Spontaneous Barbeque:




A grill (obviously)
A warm summer night

Deb (the grillmaster)
Good friends (another must)

Good beer/wine

Ribs

Chicken Wings

Some green stuff for an illusion of healthy eating




A few weeks ago Deb was inspired to have a late-night BBQ after our show. She went to the grocery store and got some great stuff, and after work Melanie and A.J. came over and we commenced to grilling and eating. It was 11pm on a Saturday night and we all had two shows the next day, but somehow that didn't matter.




I must state for the record that Deb is the best griller ever, ever. It must be her Texas blood, but you give that girl meat, fire and sauce and she'll make magic.


Yesterday we dropped off my Lesbaru in Mount Airy because her "Check Engine" light was on. Spontaneously we decided to call our favorite lesbian couple Liz and Dawn and they were game for dinner so we tripped off to the grocery store for supplies and Deb worked her magic yet again.


Goodness me, it was delicious. We had ribs and chicken drumsticks and petite steaks and chicken sausage. We drank an awesome zinfandel that went super well with all of our meat. Liz whipped up a huge yummy salad and there were even brownies for dessert! I can't believe that something so spurt of the moment turned out to be so freakin' fantastic. Not to mention how wonderful it was to hang out with Liz and Dawn.


Deb cooked her little heart out and we ate like queens and then she curled up in their big comfy chair and had to be pried out when it was time for us to leave. I think she had a good time. :)


So begins the summer of the Spontaneous Barbeque-- who knows when the next one will pop up? Hopefully you'll be along for it!
