Summer lovin’!
I’m Jessica and this is where I share my stuff. You will find a balance of healthy recipes, comfort food and indulgent desserts.
I am madly, passionately, inexplicably in love with food. Bacon makes me beam. Chocolate makes me shout from the rooftops with joy. Vegetables and I are the best of frenemies. My perfect world would include none of them.

Yes, boo! :( I miss the smell of grilling too.. Indoor grills are okay, but not as much fun!

Def. trying this!!! Thank you!!!

It’s just as delicious on steak and shrimp too!
Melissa — May 13th, 2011 @ 8:48 am
How long do you suggest marinating it for?
Jessica — May 13th, 2011 @ 8:53 am
Overnight is best, but yesterday I marinated it for about 5 hours and it was delish! I did 4 hours in the fridge, then left it out for one hour before marinating to take the chill off. I swear it makes the chicken more tender.
Now i’m totally hungry!!! LOL! Thanks for the tips!
P.S. LOVE your blog! I also live in Pgh, just about 20 mins north in Cranberry Twp!

I want a big, beautiful grill! We have a tiny hibachi, which gets the job done… but really. There’s nothing like the aroma & taste of a grilled meal to get you in the summer spirit :).

I LOVE sweet potato fries on the grill, but cutting up the taters is SO hard. ok maybe not SO hard, but hard enough. Do you use a special tool?

Oh I know! Totally agree. I just use a massive knife. And cry because it hurts my wrist.

I’m having dinner at your place – yum!

OOhhh, I got asparagus for supper for us too. Bit chilly here in England so we’ll be doing it indoors, I’m going to make some spicy chicken and rice and have them on the side. Yours look delicious going on the grill, enjoy enjoy enjoy.

Ah…now you’ve got me singing that song…
I made Trader Joe’s Seasoned Lamb chops on the grill today along with some grilled corn and boiled TJ’s teeny tiny potatoes. OH YUM!

I have missed so much! Oh my gosh…that looks like heaven on a plate! I am off to print the chicken marinade! :-)

Younger lambs are smaller and more tender. Mutton is meat from a sheep over two years old, and has less tender flesh. In general, the darker the colour, the older the animal. Baby lamb meat will be pale pink, while regular lamb is pinkish-red.–”*
