Oh gosh, I am so hungry right now! This looks amazing. I like grilling too. It's yummy and healthy. I grill fish though since I'm a pescetarian. :)

P.S. You should start watching GG again. This season is bomb. <3 Btw, Something Borrowed is super good. I'm not finished reading yet, but I'm loving it. I actually saw the movie first lol.
