We grilled Hot Italian sausage and hot dogs, served 'em up with cole slaw and a marinated pepper salad. Dessert was easy ... root beer floats. Hooray for summer!!!

Supper was good ... and the coleslaw was great. First time my son actually liked my cole slaw! Your dessert sounds wonderful. Cheesecake is one of my all-time favs. I wish you didn't live so far away ... we're way out here in the mid-west and you're way back there in the east. What's up with that?
My family, especially the 23 year old son, think it's pretty funny that I photograph food. I tell them it keeps me out of their business!
