Well, the Big Fry has begun in our fair city--temperatures hovering around a hundred already. You never get quite accustomed to Texas heat; every year it seems hotter than the year before. Walking on pavement into grocery stores in the afternoons is the worst.
After Carlene's first-ever pedicure (which she loved), we had Big Bib Barbecue far out on Austin Highway, the best in the city in our opinion. In Georgia we have hickory-smoked pork; in Texas, we have oak and mesquite smoked brisket and pulled pork. Big Bib smokes theirs for sixteen hours and it's delicious as are the sides--collard greens and baked potato casserole along with the usual beans and slaw.
Standing in the heat for hours yesterday, along with the emotional stress of it all, left us both exhausted. So we're going to settle in for a night of Netflix, maybe a few more episodes of Anne With An E--a modern retelling of Anne of Green Gables.
