We don't need no water… and I'm sure you know the rest of the real song, but yes. that is what I did on Saturday. We invited Chuck and the neighbor who lives on the other side of the block on the other side of his yard who also works at the same company if you can believe it. Eric and his wife have a little one who is five weeks younger than E.
It's really nice to hang out with first time parents who are going through the same thing. Like us, they don't have family in the area either We share stories of how challenging things are. We assure them it gets better since we are five weeks ahead. We don't feel embarrassed when a baby cries, or we need to leave early because we're tired.
But yeah. I put the Bubba burgers on the grill. I came back and flipped them. I went back inside to check on the corn and baked beans on the stove. I went back out and the grill was smoking. Like, A LOT of smoke...
I opened the lid. Flames shot up from the right side of the grill where I laid the bacon cheddar burgers. The left side had the original patties. I quickly got the food off the grill and was lucky. Only two of the bacon cheddar burgers were blackened. The rest of the food was fine. The original burgers were grilled perfectly. The "good" bacon burgers were well done but not ruined.
I'm supposed to clean the grill which I was told is a royal pain. Chuck warned us that the fire would happen after looking at it last time we used it. I didn't think it would actually happen though! So I guess no grilling out until I get it cleaned up. Boo.
