... What I Overlooked This Summer ...

This past week it hit me that we had not made chicken kabobs on the grill this summer. I was so upset with myself for overlooking this amazing meal all summer.

While at market on Tuesday, I grabbed my peppers and onions and I was set. We marinated the chicken and the veggies in Annie's Naturals Organic Roasted Garlic salad dressing (side note: this is the best marinade - for some unknown reason to us, it makes chicken VERY tender - check it out here). I always have a bottle on hand for when I am in a pinch for dinner or in the case the other night, need a marinade.

Everything only marinated a few hours but was still very yummy.

I think the second best thing about kabobs on the grill (besides the taste) is the way they look - so pretty. And of course they are healthy too!

What are your favorite meals to make on the grill?

Fair Season

Last week, we headed to our first fair this season... I don't know about the rest of the world, but there is nothing like going to a fair with your hubby and baby...

Of course, the best part of fair season is the FOOD!!! My tastes buds are watering just thinking about it but my waist line is telling me to STOP!

We hit our first fair 2 times last week and enjoyed french fries (the staple fair food), fried veggies (could life get any better) and a funnel cake (oh my stars)! The food was amazing and this was evident considering we got the same food both nights.
After stuffing our faces, I mean eating dinner, we headed over to a small petting zoo they had set up for kids. There were a bunch of sheep and goats for the kids to walk around with and pet. We didn't take punky into the area but stood outside the fence and enjoyed it all the same.

I think this is one of the best pics I have ever taken - Every time I look at it I just have to smile - how stinkin cute?!?!?!

I know it looks like he probably pooped his pants right then and there but I assure you, he did not!

Looking back, I am SO happy I snapped this pic when I did and captured this moment!
