We'll be spending most of the weekend working on the garden. Our big project is building an herb spiral -- we'll see how that goes.

Interesting plans for the weekend - running the Soldier Field 10 mile race.

I don't have any family in the area, so I tend to miss out on the BBQs.

Househunting. Getting ready for upcoming yard sale. Not that interesting, I guess.

I wouldn't call drinking outside interesting... but fun and relaxing, yes.

A variety of meats plus polenta and some veggies will be hittin' the grill. Boy howdy!

No Memorial Day is complete without the following:

Beer
BBQ
Being outside

I plan to involve all three....

And waitressing. Hopefully people are in good spirits and tip me well... ;)

Bratwursts, beer, and biking on LSD.

I will be throwing EVERYTHING on the grill this weekend.
zucchini, pineapple, kabobs, chicken, steaks, asparagus, and shrimp.

With boat drinks and beer, it should be an awesome weekend.

I'm interested to see what the weather will be. All the weather reports I saw last night were different. But Sunday is supposed to be the nicest, which is great b/c we're in Bike the Drive, then I think we'll go see that smart house on museum campus and then it's either a Sox game or a BBQ in our backyard. Either way, cold beer will be consumed, probably lots of it.

Detroit!!!! Who knows about food...

I always ride down to Olive Park to reflect a little (http://www.mishalov.com/Olive.html).

Welp, Saturday is one brother's graduation, so I'll be venturing to Rockford to hoot and holler when his name is called. Sunday is a cookout at a friends house. Guac and veggie burgers for me. Monday I have plans to clean out my closets, but in reality I'm sure I'll sleep and waste my day away.

KC for a wedding. hello BBQ haven!
try grilling salmon on a cedar plank. the smoke cooks it to a point of ridiculous tenderness and flavor. just soak the plank first for 20 minutes or so.

vanessa / May 22, 2008 7:38 PM

I'm going to Phoenix to see some relatives. 90 degree weather? Perfect!

jj / May 23, 2008 11:22 AM

Indiana Dunes, maybe.

Jay / May 23, 2008 11:38 AM

With the price of beef going through the fuckin roof, looks like I'll be grilling: my boots, marinated newspapers, pigeon wings...

Or skip the BBQ and go food rioting. Who's coming with me??

Baldeesh / May 23, 2008 12:10 PM

In no particular order - cookout at Mom's, wash the cat, install the air conditioners, work on my latest bigass knitting project, spend time with sisters before the winds scatter them across the country!

David / May 23, 2008 1:41 PM

KANYE WEST!!!

I can't believe I'm the first person to say this...
