I opened the front door the other day to find the nicest surprise. On the porch was a box from Harry & David – so I knew that whatever was inside would be a delicious treat. I dusted the snow off of the box and opened it to find gorgeous apples, perfect pears and Gouda cheese. It was a very thoughtful gift from faraway friends.
We are getting a little anxious for spring and summer to arrive here in Minnesota… When it does, we fire up the Weber regularly. When I got over my fear of the grill (I was sure I’d blow up the house) I started grilling everything!
Our favorite go-to griller? It’s flatbread, hands down!
{First, a note about grilling: If you’re a charcoal purist, forgive me, but for “Grilling 101” I needed the heat control of gas. Speaking of heat control, you’ve probably already figured out not to get too close to your subject to peek for doneness. I’ve been known to melt my mascara just enough to threaten sealing my eyes shut. Anyway, I hope to move up to charcoal someday, but right now, I just light a charcoal-scented candle to create the ambiance. I’m kidding about the candle. Kind of.*}
Back to the pear & fig flatbread…
I'm glad you stopped by ... pull up a stool, grab your favorite beverage, and let's make something delicious!
