Kicking it back with family and friends. Enjoying the summer sun with a nice cold one while having a great day off celebrating Decoration day remembering those who have fallen for our great nation.

I would love to win this grilling basket!! I love you store, but unfortunately there is not a Whole Foods near my house, I live in Fullerton, California. The closest store is about 30 minutes away, and because of gas prices it is too far for me to drive to just go grocery shopping. I used to work in the Santa Monica area, and would go to Whole Foods every week and walk around the store like I was a kid in a candy store!!

I love to grill out and think you can really eat so much healthier when you grill. Steaks, and grilled veggies with a side of grilled shrimp sure sounds good right now. I grow my own veggies and love to put a little EVOO and some seasoning on them and lightly grill them.

We *finally* set up our back deck patio furniture and fired up the grill just this past weekend. Mother's Day menu included many veggie side salad, grilled chicken breasts, and grilled asparagus-carrot-yellow squash-red onion-baby portobellos tossed with olive oil & seasoning. Yum-o! Happy Mother's Day to me! :-)

We try to cook on the grill as much as possible over the summer. We do a lot of bbq chicken, with grilled potatoes or sweet corn. And a ton of burgers and dogs for the kids.

I just bought a new grill and have spent the past 4 days doing nothing but grilling for dinner and every single thing that's been grilled has been from WFM in Portland, ME.

I look forward to going to the summer farm markets and bringing home all the frest fruits and veggies to grill. So good to add them to salads and sandwiches. The basket would be a wonderful addition to my pantry to make my grilling this summer spectacular. Thanks and have an awesome summer.

I was just thinking how this summer's 'vacations' will consist of having get-togethers around the BBQ! What a prize this would be indeed... Enjoyed WF's premade patty last year, can't wait to pick up some soon, and as may organic veggies I can carry, lol
