We've been eating really well lately. Ha. Like we don't always. Friday night B&B brought us supper!! Sheep steaks from their mountain sheep they got on their hunt this year, salad, baked potatoes, garlic bread and Papa threw some scallops and shrimp together and BBQ'd them. When B&B left this summer they told us that they would bring us back a feast and boy did they. They've been gone for almost 3 months and addition to the food we enjoyed being with them and catching up on our lives from the last 3 months. We saw pictures of their hunts and cabins and mountain views and they saw pictures of our trip. It was a fun and relaxing night! None of us Griggs had ever had sheep before and it was a great experience but it kind of wrecked us for anything else. Sheep MELTS in your mouth!! Seriously!! You chew once or twice and it is GONE!! It does have a bit of a liver type texture which the youngest 3 didn't like but the rest of us sure loved it. They left us the leftovers and we snacked on them for lunch several days. Papa even took some to work! It was what they called the 'hind' and they said it wasn't as good as the tenderloin which was buried deep in their freezer in a pile of other stuff all frozen together. We didn't care it was wonderful!! The meat was wonderful and the fellowship of missed friendship was WONDERFUL!!! They are gone again until the end of November and we miss them more then ever.
The next night we helped throw Mr. B and surprise Birthday Party and did we surprise him!! He didn't think it was for him!! He kept looking around to see who the party was for. There was TONS of great food there as well and something neither the kids or I had eaten before. Lamb chops done on the BBQ!!! WOW!!! I'm not sure if Papa had eaten them like that before but boy did we love them!! Taste great. Nothing like the lamb I remember... though I liked that too. Next year maybe we'll try a sheep again.... YUM!!!
