Summary of the Day So Far

It's 60 degrees outside, a heat wave compared with the 20's and 30's of the recent week; the sky is clear and the sun is shining.

I just assembled a new Weber Smokey Joe tabletop grill. In the refrigerator are three ribeye steaks, seasoned with Weber Chicago Steak seasoning; there is Green Giant corn in the freezer, King's Hawaiian Rolls in the breadbox, and a Key Lime Pie thawing on the bar.

Sara gets off from work at 3:30, a couple of hours from now, and will be here around 4:15; the grill will be lit and those gorgeous steaks will fill the cool North Carolina air with the fragrance of grilled beef.

There's bad days, and there's good days. This is one of the good days.
