The Table
The kitchen table is a well-used space. Through the day and week it serves many purposes. In our home it is a place where homework is done, papers are sorted, projects are created, groceries are unloaded, games are played, and books are read.
But at the end of each day it becomes a treasured place – a place to gather, a place where people come together. For a few moments a day, it is a place to stop. Sitting around the table enjoying a meal, conversation, and laughter, is a blessed event. It is a necessary ritual that binds us together and fills our bodies and spirits. Our time together celebrates everything the table represents: food, family, fun, and home.
The table is also a place to share with neighbors, friends, and loved ones. The pineapple, with its stately shape and happy colors, is a symbol of welcome and hospitality. It is a delicious addition to any meal. To echo the sentiment of friendship and warmth, we want to share a special recipe: grilled pineapple. This unique and scrumptious treat is a family favorite. We hope you enjoy it! From our table and home to yours.
Grilled Pineapple
One whole pineapple
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon gallon-size zip baggie
Cut the top and skin off the outside of pineapple. Stand pineapple upright and cut down to create long, thick spears; discard center core. Place pineapple spears, brown sugar, and cinnamon in baggie and shake/rub until pineapple is coated. Place in a baking dish and let marinate for 1 hour. Grill on BBQ until grill lines appear and it is warmed through.
