Grillin n' Chillin


Check out these bad-boys!
friends + grill + sunshine = excellent excuse for celebration (math is fun!)

Charlie's backyard chickens were sure pleased that we were grilling cow. We needed something in the realm of juicy-savory-spicy-sultry to pair with a rockin marinated tri-tip, so after enjoying our food-prep aperitifs we uncorked a few winning bottles (and a little 5th growth Bordeaux thanks to papa Wassenmiller! How awesome is life? So awesome!) We scarfed down roasted beets and loads of veggies from Charlie's own micro-farm, leaving us with dufus-sized grins on our faces.
