Saturday June 14A perfect June evening to dress up in our garden-party outfits and walk to the wedding of our good friends Kathy and Russel, at their new home here in Clifton. Their back garden was a perfect party space, and after a relaxed Reformed ceremony, a banquet of barbeque was served in the tent on their lawn.
The caterers were a local place called "Pit to Plate." Their pulled pork and chicken and meaty ribs were very good, and you could adorn the meat with a selection of sauces, not just hot-medium-mild but North Carolina and Western style. There were also traditional sides like corn bread, green beans, redskin potatoes; beer, of course; and bibs for those nervous about the effect of barbeque sauce on their attire. We didn't see the rabbi chowing down on the pork, but she would have enjoyed it had she tried.
For dessert, we toasted the happy couple with champagne and three kinds of cake (real cakes, mind, not those inedible tiered things). And we wish them many more delicious barbeques in the future.
