It was the final preseason game for the Bears today and my final chance to prepare something new before the regular season tailgating starts. The game was fun to watch, 26-23 Bears, even though the starters didn't play much at all. Other players are trying to make the team, so that was interesting.
As far as the grilling goes, I cooked some corn in the husk for the first time while tailgating. It turned out really good!! Benny Baseball's gal, brought the corn and had soaked it in water all morning. She was going to get it from a relatives farm and it was going to be sweet corn, but she missed the window and they ran out. What she brought was fine though. Good stuff.
Now I need to hit the sack before driving to St. Louis tomorrow for the USSSA Nationals. These fields are probably the best grass fields in the Midwest. The team is looking forward to playing there again. It's been a few years since we last had to go down there.
Hope you all have a great Labor Day weekend!!!

does LL come along on these outings?
Normally she will, but she didn't last night. In fact, it was the first game to which I've ever gone alone! She's still getting settled into her new apartment after her move.
Play well!
Husband and I cook corn in the husk on the grill all the time. We never soak it and it always turns out great!
Oh Stef, you should definitely try soaking it for a few hours first. It sort of steams the corn too and keeps it moist. Mmmmmmmm.......
