DAY 181 OF 365: GETTING READY FOR A COOK OFF

So it is 4th of July weekend and everyone is getting ready for a good BBQ. I am actually having a cookout with friends tomorrow at our Gourmet Social Club. It is a group of us that get together and cook various meals and prepare drinks and then grade each of us and then we vote for who prepared the best meal. There is even a trophy involved. Needless to say it is very competitive as we are all vying for the title of winner. Think of it as a book club of sorts. This weeks challenge was to create a meal that included corn flakes, lemon or lime or both and an herb that begins with the letter s. We are also to make a cocktail that can either compliment our meal or stand on its own. So tomorrow morning I need to get up early so that I can start preparing my drink and appetizer. Fingers cross that I show better at this challenge than the pizza challenge.  Well I am off to bed. Till tomorrow.
