Mesquite charcoal-grilled hamburgers (in the rain :) ). They turned out especially well this time. Blended (per usual) 90/10 ground beef (93/7 just doesn't have enough fat for flavor; 85/10 would even be better but 90/10 is our half-nod towards "health" ;) ) + a few tablespoons of hickory bbq sauce + a couple of tablespoons of Team Sweet Mama's Kansas City Barbecue Rub + a few tablespoons of bread crumbs to help bind the patties together. Paired with Mrs. cblaisd's homemade yeast hamburger buns.

Made enough for leftovers :)

Spaghetti Puttanesca. Yum!

Charcoal grilled lemon-pepper-olive oil rockfish fillets, strawberries & raspberries, and homemade garlic buns. Oreos for dessert :)

Also charcoal grilled (in an aluminum pan, a kind of on-the-grill stir-fry) from spouse cblaisd a medley of asparagus, green pepper, red onion, & sugar snap peas spiced with basil, thyme, garlic, and black pepper. She is a fan. I am not ;)

Thai chicken rice.

40 pork & veggie dumplings *burp* *fart*

I don't know if Mr. Kipper is going to cook ravioli or if we are going to the Greek Food Festival. If we don't go to the Greek Food Festival tonight, we will go tomorrow.

Mussel and fish soup with red pepper sauce. Fantastic!

It was amazing. They have one two or three times each year and we always stop for at least one meal.

I arrive into RDU and have to drive to Wilmington (2hr15 away). There's a Sheetz on the RDU Airport grounds so I think I'll swing by there and get one of their made to order subs for the drive.
