Chicken Kabobs
Posted on: June 30, 2013
What is your favorite grilled food? Mine are kabobs, whether made with chicken, beef, seafood or lamb, I like putting together ingredients for kabobs.
My BFF from New Rochelle was visiting this weekend, so in addition to some “girl talk” and a few cold Peach Bellinis, we dined on crabs, shrimp and chicken kabobs.
Girlfriends for Life!
Ingredients:
Chicken breasts, mushrooms, Mango, grape tomatoes, red onion, sweet peppers, Adobe Seasoning, pepper, Lawry Hawaiian Marinade
Soak wood skewers in cool water
Thoroughly wash mushrooms, rinse tomatoes and peppers
Dice red onion, if cut under stove’s exhaust fan there are no tears
Cut mango, mushrooms, sweet peppers and chicken into bite size pieces
Season with Adobe and pepper
Skewer alternating veggies, mango and chicken. I usually start and end with a grape tomato, they seem to hold everything in place.
Pour on marinade, cover with foil and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes
Fire up the grill and place on non-stick foil, depending on your grill’s temp, cook thoroughly until chicken is done.
Remove from grill and let sit for a few minutes before serving.
Crabs and Shrimp purchased from Lewes Fishhouse.

Happy 1st Day of Summer – the longest day of the year!
More sunshine means more fun time, so how are you going to celebrate ?
Will you be cooking on the grill; sitting on the patio/deck listening to music; going to the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival; outdoor dining; heading down to FireFly, playing with the kids/grands or just relaxing with a book and a beverage? How about an ice cream cone from Mister Softee or a $2 Ice/$3 Gelati from Rita’s?
No matter what you do, just do it and have fun!

It’s finally Friday and the heat is on!
I am so ready for the weekend and tomorrow’s plans include clearing out my little garden because the mint has taken over! I want to add some basil, peppers and tomatos and get a few flowering baskets to hang around the deck.
It’s time to fire up the grill and spend evenings sitting outside, I love this time of the year!

I love to cook dinner for my men but because I have such a long commute from Pennsylvania I am always on the lookout for easy, breezy dinner ideas. Crock pot cooking is definitely my all time favorite but I don’t mind firing up the grill or even the oven during the summer. Last night’s meal was definitely easy, breezy using chicken breasts and Kraft Fresh Take mix. In our house, no meal is complete without a starch and a veggie, I chose Zatarains rice, steamed broccoli and Marie Callenders Cheddar biscuits.
Memorial Day 2012
Posted on: May 28, 2012
I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day Holiday weekend, the unofficial start of summer 2012. My men and I had a nice weekend and I spent most of my time outdoors working in the yard and opening the pool. The temperature was in the low 90’s and I didn’t realize how intense the sun was nor did I see the poison ivy intertwined in the tree branches that I cut. Despite the results of these two oversights I had a great time grilling and spending time outdoors which for me is always relaxing.
It is now tIme to get my mind right in preparation for another short work week which is always more hectic than a regular 5-day week!
