First though...we all made our way down to Findlay Market for some goodies we would need for the backyard BBQ. And of course, Findlay Market means Dojo Gelato...at least to Antoine and I! We got our usual pint of half Vietnamese Coffee and half Sea Salted Caramel. Michelle and Christian (aka sis and bro) walked away with two pints! And Kit and Andy (aka super cool friends of sis and bro) also took home a pint.
Mmmm, Dojo...how I love thee!
After mass shopping at Findlay, Antoine and I went home to let the Cheese-man out and take a little family nap together (we were still recovering from Saturday, and I guess Cheese was recovering from missing us on Saturday!) After the nap, we headed over to my Michelle and Christian's (with Cheese in tow) to do some more relaxing. Since their yard is almost completely fenced in, and ours is not, we were able to let Cheese run loose in the yard! He loved it! We threw his ball around and he was running all around the yard like a mad/happy dog! I have photographic proof of the complete joy Cheese experienced from running around the yard acting like a total puppy...
This is now my new favorite picture of Cheese! Look at that tongue!
After an hour or so of puppy playtime, I made my way to the kitchen. My sister was making some of her famous coconut rice pudding while I was making a special salad to go with the ribs (but more on that later). When I was done, Cheese was thoroughly pooped, so Antoine and I took him home to go to bed and we got freshened up for dinner (it was like 110 degrees out, with humidity and everything, so I was in desperate need of a shower!). Good thing my sis lives about 2 minutes down the road from our house...makes things handy!
When we got back, the ribs and chicken were almost ready...

My bro-in-law was like a school boy on crack...he was so excited about his smoked ribs and homemade bbq sauce! And with good reason!
