Snow was in the air and we were grilling pork chops last night.
I say "we" -- I mean my husband was grilling and I was sipping wine and trying to tell him he was doing it wrong.
Kcinnova, yes, that is the only thing wrong with that joke....we grill all year round. ;)
That was a perfect explanation for temperature differences. I had a good chuckle. Thanks, Reb.
Barbara, yes it is a good comparison.
Cute I love it... lol Thanks. Well, here in Memphis we are getting our 15 minutes of snow for the year. Pisses me off... where's my blizzard?? :((
