Come On, Spring!

Our dinner plan tonight was to tempt Spring with the yummy smell of grilled teriyaki pork and veggies. That sweet, savory, mouth-watering aroma all over in the air as Joe grilled, not quite outside but in the garage with the door half open. At least we had bright sunlight, and the temperatures in the 40's today. I also found the first Vidalia onions at the store. I couldn't help but picking up summer veggies: zucchini and cherry tomatoes. We are really ready for Spring!  
Everything was so good, and I even look forward to the leftover. But if it were for Spring, I would happily share my teriyaki pork. We'll see how tempting the smell of grilled pork was to Spring... as we hear about the snow/ ice/ rain mix forecast for the next few days. 
 After dinner we took a drive, or attempted, to Joe's uncle's camp. Joe wanted to check the amount of snow out there, because Uncle and Aunt were thinking of coming up this weekend. To our surprise, as we drove away from our house (about 17 miles), the snow amount significantly went down. It almost looked like Spring! Although Joe made a good judgment not to take his little Subaru onto the soft slushy snow on the last stretch of the way. Hopefully the warm temps will keep melting what's left of the snow to welcome Uncle and Aunt. They better bring warm weather with them from south!

  1. What's the secret to a good teriyaki pork? How do you flavor it and what kind of cut of meat do you get? Could you email me the recipe? I'm so hungry. lol
