Last night ribs. This afternoon, at our vacation place in Western Maryland, we have our annual 4th of July pot luck. There will be barbecued chicken, ribs, kebobs, salads, pulled chicken, and a bunch of other stuff. Plus desserts for those who like sweets. I stick with fruit.

Wine list is excellent, with a heavy emphasis on southern Italians, as the owners are from Naples, but they have many Italian wines divided by region and some American wines too.
Pizza night today! I finally feel much better after a big food poisoning and can start eating again everything what I like. For the last five days I tried to keep a strict diet and took few different medications (found information about those on Canadian Pharmacy website). So happy it is all over now.
