Of course, many of you have been grilling since the temps first got above freezing (a few probably didn’t even let the cold keep you inside), but for the rest of us, Memorial Day weekend is the first good chance to fire up the grill and devote some serious time to cooking.

With the assistance of a DVD, Leicht dropped to his knee and asked for her hand in marriage. “Sure!!!” was Czarnowska’s excited response. Saturday, October 10, 2009 was a monumental day for Leicht and Czarnowska. One year prior they were…
