Flame Grilled

I have lived in Texas for over five years now and I still can't get used to this: It's the first week of January and the temperatures are in the 70's. Hello? It should be freezing. It should be snowing! It just doesn't feel like winter. I guess I should be happy that it's fairly comfortable out, but I just miss the northeast at times like this. I also can't enjoy this weather as much as I could. Because of the dry weather and high winds, all of north Texas is in a Red Flag warning until... well, no one really knows how long it will last, but some are predicting that it will go through the spring. There's currently a burn ban in my county, so any cooking outdoors is out of the question. Outdoor grilling is my favorite thing about warm weather. There's nothing like cooking fajita chicken on the grill or slow cooking pulled pork all day.

Okay, well it's off to work I go. I'll try to blog more today sometime.
