We handle BBQ season prescicely like that. I tell myself, “Oh, my husband will grill and I’ll have an easy supper night.” Yeah, right! But our little ones enjoy being outside with him while he cooks so I do get a peaceful kitchen. And… nothing beats BBQ food. Love summertime!
It is great to have everything (relatively) clean inside, true! Summertime BBQ is the best, though no matter how hectic. Thanks for passing by and leaving a comment! Mama MOE
