Is is just me or are steak kabobs total eye candy?

We made these last weekend with chicken and marinated steak and gorgeous veggies.

It’s like fireworks on a stick!

Grilling just appeals to all the senses and that’s what makes us feel so good, I think.

The whole experience from top to bottom is pure joy.

I especially like the eating part, don’t you? 🙂

Get out and enjoy some of these this weekend!

We couldn’t help but bask in the gorgeous weather this weekend.

And here’s what goes along with that . . .

Kabobs, kabobs and more kabobs.

We grilled up seasoned beef kabobs and sprinkled in a few chicken and even salmon kabobs for good measure.

The backyard was filled with the enchanting aroma of sizzling meat and vegetables while the kids swam and goofed off.

An absolutely perfect summer day.

It’s times like this when you wonder if life can get any better. The trick is to not think too much further beyond the moment. It was exquisite.

I hope you are having as much fun with summer as we are!

As we go into this important holiday weekend, remember, even your steaks can be patriotic!

Don’t believe me? Just click here for a kabob recipe that includes all the colors red, white AND blue. Blue potatoes!

Have a safe, happy – and flavorful 4th of July!
