Fourth of July question, but anyone can chime in with tonight's dinner menu.

Despite the wild partying going on at our crazy neighbor's, who choose every
opportunity to have a pool party with loud, obnoxious music, which keeps
*our* outside activities to a minimum... we're breaking out the BBQ grill
(propane - we have about 4 full tanks of propane set aside for hurricane
aftermaths, so we figured we'll do the special rather than the ordinary for
us). Ben is going to boil spare ribs in crab boil until they're tender and
then put them on the grill (unfortunately we'll be using bottled BBQ sauce,
not home made - I just don't have the energy to contribute to the meal
today). Everything else will be done on the side burners. Macaroni and
cheese - the "Deluxe" package - again, I'm not able to cook the good
home-made baked macaroni, unfortunately. We have the makings for a really
nice salad... Romaine lettuce, fresh mushrooms, pitted olives with pimento,
cucumber, avocado, fresh garden tomatoes and bacon bits - topped with bleu
cheese dressing. We'll also have fresh corn on the cob - steamed to
perfection (I don't like corn wrapped in tinfoil and done on the BBQ.
What's everyone else having?
