Getting ready...

Grilling...

... for Christmas means a lot of things. When thinking of Christmas prep, our thoughts immediately go to presents, shopping and wrapping. Then, our thoughts probably go to decorating, namely the tree and maybe the outdoors if we are so inclined. Finally, it goes to cards, baking, and various and sundry things associated with Christmas. But for some, like Isaiah Alvendia, Steds senior,  Christmas prep means cooking... and a lot of it. Back home in Guam, Isaiah is at his station, the grill, preparing his parish's Christmas barbecue. Aided by great weather and several practice tries at Steds in the fall, Isaiah is more than happy to take to his station and grill away. On the secret of a great barbecue, Alvendia whispered, "It's all in the marinade."

In the Red Room will return after a Christmas Break hiatus. Stay tuned because you haven't heard anything yet!

... means a lot of prepping!
