Perfect season for grilling!
It was a balmy 90 degrees yesterday, so it was the perfect day for setting up the good ole charcoal grill. Katie and I decided that we wanted to make some kebabs, so we again turned to the wonderful work at The Gracious Pantry, where we found a delightful recipe for Pineapple Pork Kebabs. This recipe made enough for 8 skewers worth of kebabs, so probably one for a group (or for people that love leftovers for lunch!).
There really is nothing like enjoying a beer and standing in front of the grill. Since its more or less the only cooking that Katie lets me do, it really is where I am the master of dinner, which is a fun change of pace. These turned out awesome, as everything at The Gracious Pantry does, so go check it out!

The Beginning of Summer
I finally turned in my last assignment for the semester, so I'm allowed the chance to breathe for a few days before diving back into my research. WOO!
Anyway. I have discovered that I LOVE eating delicious, healthy food. There's just something awesome about biting into a crispy broccoli crown or a seared piece of cauliflower or some oven roasted asparagus. Katie has become quite the chef, bustling about the kitchen and just discovering random recipes that have been delicious! This week, she's got so many delicious meals chosen that I might explode from the pure joy of eating , and all of it is guilt free clean eats!
We plan to make this, which is another Gracious Pantry recipe. We LOVE the work that Tiffany does over there. Everything she cooks is clean and doesn't require a lot of ingredients, so it works for those of us who want to eat clean and healthy but need to maintain something resembling a budget. Plus, I love getting the chance to grill, cause there's nothing like a beer in hand with the charcoal going.
We'll be sure to post pictures of the meals we make this week, as they all look FREAKING delicious!

Work in Progress
Hello All!
So I know that this blog thus far is pretty dull. There are no pictures, we don't have a regular post schedule, only part of my story is up, and the recipes I have promised have yet to surface. I truly do apologize for the amount of time that it is taking to get this blog up to par, but life sometimes just gets in the way of things. Adam is super busy with the end of his first year at grad school and I have been busy at work. But I promise all that will change shortly and this blog will hopefully become a place that is both helpful and enjoyable for everyone who happens to read. That being said, this weekend I tried out some more recipes and even "invented" one of my own. AND we took pictures of all the treats this time, so we will get those up asap. I really enjoyed this past weekend. It was cold and rainy here and that weather just makes me want to get in the kitchen and bake, bake, bake! But it was good to try out some new things, snuggle on the couch, and watch movies all weekend. Although that does make Monday really difficult, especially when you have to wear real clothes instead of the sweats you lived in all weekend.... Oh well I guess I could have it worse! Well, it's time to get ready for work. I promise to have the rest of my story up this week, along with some pictures and hopefully a few recipes! Have a great day and see you soon!
