GRAND RELAUNCH BARBECUE

Who: EVERYONE
What: Awesomeness Committee BBQ party
When: Saturday, July 6
Where: Castle lawn and pool


So many days into summer and not a single pool party yet! Today castle residents may hear some noise wafting from the lawn and pool along with that distinct smell of the barbecue roaring. Oh yeaaah, Barney Stinson's got you covered, Paradisa!

The lawn area has been decked out all in colors, with the grills to one side and the chocolate fountain to another. For those more inclined to chill out and soak up the sun, there are picnic rugs rolled out on the green grass among any kind of game you could wish for. The pool itself has a few floating beds thrown in and all sorts of toys, with a changing tent set up just nearby for anyone who decides they want to get wet and wild after all!

All the fun is for forgetting recent horrors the residents have been through. So once the sun goes down, there will be a time to write down all unpleasantness, and set it to fire. But be careful not to stay out too late; the Castle may have a different idea of Cinderella once midnight strikes.

"You've never been to a barbecue? Oh-hooo, you poor thing." Genuine, if exaggerated concern showed on Barney's face as he wiped his hands on the towel he'd slung over his shoulder and hung his tongs on the side of the grill. "Come on around, I'll show you how it works - that is, if you don't mind a little heat."

What a curious response. He seemed kind enough, though. And if he were willing to show her the workings of this strange device he had certainly gained her interest. She smiled and shrugged slightly, "No. We never had such things at home and recent events have caused me to..." Oh how to put this... "Move from place to place rather quickly so we hadn't the opportunity for a frivolity such as this."

Mind the heat? That went without saying, didn't it? Oh how did that idiom go? 'If you don't like the heat get out of the kitchen'? Not entirely appropriate for the situation but the literal meaning was quite the same, of curse. "And to answer your inquiry - I do not mind the heat a bit. It's necessary to ensure the food is cooked properly."

In Barney''s experience, anyone who spent their childhood moving around like that was bound to have some kind of parental issues... perfect. He smirked as Sunny joined him behind the grill. "The key to any good barbecue is to start it off nice and slow.... You have to heat the coals a little bit at a time. Give the warmth time to build up and spread out over every inch of it."

Barney you have no idea. Sunny nodded as she looked over the setup. It was quite simple when put that way, not nearly as complicated as she had thought it might be. "I understand. That way you have an equal amount of heat throughout - to keep it even and not overcook anything right?"
