April 15, 2014---Brent’s in Brandon, Mississippi


Today was our 54th wedding anniversary.  When Michelle told Connor, he wanted to know if we were going to eat at Burger King.  Well, yes, Connor, we did!

Brent planned to cook ribs in his smoker.  He is an expert at it.  That was to be our celebration dinner.  However, we decided to go to Burger King for lunch just to “practice.”

Before we went to lunch, Brent was getting the smoker ready to put the ribs in when we got home.  That was a good plan, except his smoked was on the fritz.  No matter how much he worked with it, it was a lost cause.

So, after lunch at BK, we took Bill back to the MH for a nap, and Brent and I went shopping.  The first place we went was only open on Fridays.  Ugh!  Then it was on to Home Depot.  They didn’t have exactly what Brent wanted, so we went to Bass Pro.  That’s where he had purchased his first smoker four years ago.

He found what he was looking for and by the time it was purchased, loaded into the car, and we got back home it was 3:30.  He and his dad assembled it, which was no small feat.  Then Brent discovered that the smoker should be put through a dry run to “season” it.

At that point, we had run out of enough time to cook the ribs.  Brent offered to fix something else.  We decided to have ribs tomorrow night as our celebration.

So...once again Burger King saved the day!
