We are! DH and I have our parents coming over.

We will do the usual burgers, sausages and we also have some moroccan lamb chops. Going to make a potato salad in a moment.
Just made the fresh strawberry flans and they are setting in the fridge and will be served with a big dollop of thick double cream later.
Sluuuuuuurrrrrrppppp - bang goes the diet again!

And of course wine and beer are a chillin' in the fridgo too.

Ahhhhh I love summer!!

It's a great way out of cooking for us ladies isn't it? Men always like to be in charge when cooking outside. Why is this? Grin
I'm not going to grumble. Shall just get myself comfy in the sunlounger and get slowly drunk whilst MIL and my mother rabbit away and the kids fight. Grin

We BBQ almost every day - even in the rain!

I don't think it is a great deal for the woman, though, apart from the lack of pots and pans to wash up. Think about it - we prepare all the marinades for the meats, we make the salad (several different kinds), we prepare the puddings. The men swan in at the last minute and stand over the grill with a beer in one had and a medieval tool in the other, and then get the credit for the whole meal. Smile

THe good thing is that you can prepare everything ahead of schedule, even the day before, and then you can actually enjoy your own party :)
