I will unfortunately have to bow out once more . A very good friend of ours, a 95-year-old lady who has been like a grandmother to my sister and me, (our paternal grandparents are either dead or not in the area), has been on hospice for a while due to inoperable breast cancer and other health issues and looks to be reaching her final days. She has been struggling with swallowing for the past week, and if you can't swallow, you can't eat or drink, and if you can't eat or drink, well...

Was that the sliced tomatoes and mozzarella salad or the cherry tomato salad? They were both devastatingly good.

Alas, due to other summer Benz road trips....I had to miss this GTG.
It is on the plan for next year....if you'll have me. Looks like it was a great turn out. Good job, Chad.
