Hi, my name is Melanie and last year, I became addicted to grilling. I grilled any vegetable I could get my hands on, I had to make up for the previous 28 years of lost time, you know! I love to grill not only because it tastes good, but because it usually means sharing time and a meal with people you care about. While I did not cook or eat anything from the photos below, these images have me inspired for a great grilling season to come!

Here are a collection of photos I've taken while on the job for AnnArbor.com at a variety of festivals and gatherings during the last two weeks. Eat it up! :)

And what meal is complete without a little dessert?
