Norah Grace’s COVID-19 birthday party

Yesterday was Norah Grace‘s birthday and we couldn’t do much.  It is a tradition with our family, that the birthday individual gets to pick their favorite restaurant to go eat at...well they are all closed.  Norah Grace said she’d like to grill some steaks and have her grandparents over.   
She fired up her grill and tossed on some Strip steaks.  

Here are a few photos of her efforts.

    A belated Happy Birthday.  Way to make the best of a challenging situation.
    Definitely led with a great finishing shot.  Great cook but never a doubt.

    Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

    Belated happy birthday to Norah Grace. Sounds like she had a nice birthday despite not being able to go to a restaurant, which doesn't surprise me.

    Tough situation for sure. My five year old was really looking forward to a big bd bash with her friends this year - especially since we are soon to move to a neighbourhood across town, where she is unlikely to see her friends as often. It’s not gonna happen, so I guess we’ll be deferring the celebration with friends until things clear up, whenever that might be.

    @Great_EGGspectations I’m sure you’ll make the best of it. I’m lucky Norah Grace is a little older and able to understand, she told us last night this birthday was her favorite. She got to cook, play board games with the family, and work on art projects.  Also her teacher made a big deal out of it being Norah Grace’s Bday.  

    Good luck with the move and upcoming Bday party.
