I usually start with the grid for several reasons. The main being is that the grid is the main tool in building a prototype or wireframe quickly. So it gets you up and running with basic layouts. The other is that I like to complete all the html first, then just apply the grid. This helps you see the big picture and design an overall balanced design.

Hope this helps.
