On the menu tonight...
Beef sausages with tomato sauce (c/- Masterfoods)
Homemade beetroot (c/- Dad)
Potato salad in homemade mayonnaise
Coleslaw in homemade mayonnaise (mayonnaise c/- of my sister)
I did the rest.

Alas,I forgot to include a snap of the fire.

Photography: I put the camera on a tripod. I can't quite remember what I did for exposure. I took a guess. It might be about one second. It was somewhat random as I am jumping ahead of my knowhow. The lighting is an overhead spotlight dangling from a branch.

my limited experience with aussie style barbie food was less than impressive... greasy slabs of meat that ended up being 'fried' on a solid sheet of metal with the fire below, instead of the open kind of grill we use...and while I like beets, the australian with including 'beet root' with everything confounds me! kitegypsy · 2009-08-09: 11:34

Oh god yes we do love our beetroot. Usually its canned. And I especially love it in hamburgers when I used to eat them. Beetroot was probably missed on that post a week or so ago about food you got used to in another country. ShangriLa · 2009-08-09: 12:58

Sure do, Miz B JenPat · 2009-08-09: 17:18

trouble with too much beets is that you poop red....quite disconcerting, i must say... kitegypsy · 2009-08-09: 23:11

I love the mood of the last pic, SL: replete. SoulCurry · 2009-08-10: 02:40

BBQs are always great. rezinka · 2009-08-10: 04:52

I love BBQs. I've had to train my husband not to use the plate for anything but fried eggs. MelanieO · 2009-08-11: 20:17

ShangriLa, the plate is just for frying things like eggs and onions - not grilling. (I hate how replies to posts get sent directly to the guest book.) Anyway - I like my steak, sausage, burgers, fish, chicken, etc, grilled. Yumm yumm. Now I can't wait for the warm weather to get here. MelanieO · 2009-08-13: 04:28
