A Casual Barbecue Party

          Last Saturday, my family suddenly received my aunt’s invitation about a barbecue party. Although it was pretty abrupt, we concurred with this invitation. To be honest, because my aunt and my family lived near to each other, we usually held some activities together on the spur of the moment. This barbecue party was the best example. We seemed to do too many of the same things; hence, we had great chemistry with each other. For example, we did not need extra distribution of the preparation for barbecue party, we always knew the tasks which we should be charge of.

         During this barbecue party, my duty is to make a fire with charcoal by a flame gun. As the matter of the fact, I was terrified of this undertaking because much charcoal was of inferior quality; therefore, it was easy to spray carbon particles with the sparks on my hands and feet when I tried to light a fire. However, I still enjoyed this task since I thought that it brought me a sense of accomplishment. Apart from me, other people also had their own duties. For instance, my mother and aunt should process ingredient before my sisters grilled it.

          When it comes to barbecue party, the delicious pork bellies and beef flank occur to us. As a family who always throw a barbecue party, we have had a lot of experience to know which ingredient should be purchased in which stores. Besides the great ingredient, an excellent chef is indispensable. The chef in this barbecue party was my cousin. She not only was good at grilling, but also knew our preferences like the back of her hand. That’s why we were really satisfied with these delicacies without any strictures.  

          Through this barbecue party, I more realize that it is quite important to enhance the family relationships. This barbecue party is one of the best medium to make us appreciate each other because under this relaxed atmosphere, we often intend to speak up our thoughts on our mind. As a result, we could get some different ideas from other people’s perspective and discuss with them, so that we may obtain solutions to our troubles. Moreover, this barbecue party also relieve my stress and anxiety about midterm exams. With this interesting activity, I think that I gain enough energy to confront my exams.
