But also and more important than wanting to fire up the grill is to take time to stop and think about those that have lost their lives protecting this country. Memorial Day is the day we honor the brave men and women who have lost their lives servicing this country.

Memorial Day started all the way back in 1864 in the State of Pennsylvania but that doesn’t stop Southerners from celebrating in a big way. Any excuse to use that grill and barbecue some amazing dishes is good enough for Southerners. For more information on Memorial Day please check out history.com

Hi Kathy, thanks for your post. Yes that is why several times in my post I have referenced our fallen soldiers. But I also believe that any public holiday that helps us remember our military is an opportunity to thank them whether they are living or thank the families of those who have passed. And of course keep those that have passed in our prayers. I also believe that this shouldn’t be limited to the holidays but anytime we see a soldier or see the family of a soldier a thank you is more than warranted for their sacrifices.
