(T)arina and (A)tkins in Chicago

Hello everyone, Atkins here…

I posted about 250 photos from Paul and Larry and Claudia on flickr today. We still don’t have the digital copies of our professional photos. You can look at our current collection of wedding photos or see Paul’s pictures or Larry and Claudia’s pictures separately. Once I’ve collected most of the wedding shots, I’ll make a new flickr set that just contains the best of the best photos.

In other news, I got soaked on my walk home from work today.  Usually I really like wet weather but today I was not a fan. Once I was home, I noticed that our nice new grill cover has mysteriously vanished. I can only assume that it was blown up and off the grill and is either in Lake Michigan or stuck on someones fence.

So, we have a new grill. We received it as a wedding present, and just put it together last night. It’s pretty cool to have our very own grill. Very grown up, don’tcha know… Here’s the pic:

I have to admit, we did have a grill once before which we never used. We bought it at a garage sale for two dollars. It was red, rusted out and quite dirty. We just never put the energy into cleaning it up. Don’t have a pic of that one, though it would be a nice contrast.

All we need to do now is get some charcoal and fire it up! There are all sorts of weird grill laws in the condo. No gas tanks. No lighter fluid. You’re supposed to get a charcoal grill with an electric starter. This is a charcoal grill with a propane starter, but we’re not going to use the starter. I think we’ll just buy Match-Light charcoal and go from there.

I haven’t barbecued in so long! I’m so excited. :D
Here’s to yummies on the grill!
