Yesterday my roommate and I had our own personal Memorial Day cookout. It was delicious. We dined on macaroni salad....
....mini corndogs....
....burgers....
....veggies....
....fruit salad....
....and washed it all down with iced tea.
Now, I would love to tell all of you exactly how to recreate this mind-blowingly stupendous meal for yourselves, but my roommate's mother is guarding her macaroni salad recipe with her life, and the fruit salad is my Grammarie's secret recipe, which I am not ready to spread all over the internet. Maybe someday.
If you want, I can teach you all how to microwave fake corndogs. Anybody? No? Okay.
After dinner we played a highly competitive round of Velcro Ball, which I totally won. Not that we were keeping score or anything, but I totally won. I didn't hurt my shoulder being a showoff at all. Nope. Not me.
When we were done playing Velcro Ball, we watched the neighborhood bunnies and attempted to admire our peonies without detecting their stench. This is harder to do than one would think. If you don't believe me, I'd be more than happy to send you a bouquet.
I am also happy to report that my neighbors got into the holiday spirit and finally mowed their lawn. Whoever had 1pm Sunday in our lawn mowing bet wins five fictitious dollars.
(This is the "before" picture, not the "after," I promise.)
I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend and used it as an excuse to drink all the iced tea your bladder could hold. I did.
How does your family celebrate Memorial Day? Let me know about your traditions in the comments!
