I will be taking a break from blogging as I am going on a short vacation with my family, over the holidays to Treasure Cay, Bahamas (on the island of Abaco).

Although I am not as an accomplished fisherman as I am a “grillmaster ,  my father-in-law and brother-in-law are salt water enthusiasts, and it doesn’t get much better than bottom fishing in the waters near Abaco, Guana Cay and Green Turtle Cay. (for fly fisherman, the flats are terrific for bonefish) You never know what you will catch, but typically you come home with enough strawberry grouper, yellowtail and mutton snapper (if you are lucky) for a terrific meal.

Now this is where the grilling comes in. A thick grouper filet on the charcoal grill, with a Goombay Smash or an ice cold Kalik- then top it off with a Cuban cigar, and you have a day worthy of being considered “grilladelic”.

The fish are terrific with a little lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.

I will share some pictures of this good life. Family, friends, fishing, stogies, sand, warm weather, beautiful beaches….when I return in January.

With three kids, we don’t do a vacation like this often, so it is a special time and we are thankful for the great country we live in!

Happy holidays everyone.
