More Work From The Sunporch

It is the end of the weekend and I am once again working out on the sunporch on the Cape. We had dinner and then I set up my computer and work station. The family continued their game of Rummy 500 from the other night. Eva took over for Uncle Erik and there was a lot of laughter going on. The sunporch has two outdoor windows on the inner walls to the dining room. In one window there is a special painted window of a cow in a Santa hat with ornaments. My in laws gave this to my parents one year. Well, my niece doesn’t like it and thinks that the cow is pooping an ornament. So, my mother decided to put up a window valance to cover up the lower half of the cow and have the face only peeking out. This is not acceptable to my sister who has been trying to redecorate the sunporch to get us out of thrift store sheik.

frozen chicken

We’re planning out the meals for the week and I have been toying with the idea of doing a spatchcock chicken on the grill. I watched a few videos last night on how to do it and I think I should be able to take care of one this week and use the new grill accessory that I got for Dad for Father’s day. It allows you to smoke food on a regular gas grille. It is called the Flavor Q Grid. So, I’m going to smoke a spatchcock chicken on Wednesday. There was a discussion that there was a frozen chicken in the outdoor freezer. Mom did not seem to think that one was in there so I went out and found it and took a photo of it. I’ll take it out to defrost tomorrow. This was a decent video teaching how to prepare a spatchcock chicken.
