Hello friends
I hope you are enjoying the day and all is good in your neighborhood. I still haven’t decided as to where we will be going to see fireworks. We will either go to Wilmington and see Macy Gray, or downtown Middletown or maybe just stay home and watch WaWa Welcome America featuring Kevin Hart, The Roots, Ne-Yo, Jill Scott, and others.
Where do you go to see 4th of July fireworks?
This is what I wore to work yesterday, how do you like my Red White & (Polka Dot) Blue outfit?

Be safe – Smooches!

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.

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.
Linking up on Monday with Tough Cookie Mommy – come on over and join the fun!
