There are times when things seem so routine….these are the times when the imagination must be put to work. The spirit needs to recharge and gear up for a new day, new week, new month and a new beginning. How is this done? I think that we stumble into how things are done and know that what is put before us is no mistake. We simply take a deep breath, pray and then begin.
However, things are always better and easier to challenge when we do take that deep breath and enjoy a nice meal with the faces we so dearly love.

Big Daddy Dave says
Catherine, Not really into kabobs...as I can't stand the smell or taste of bell peppers. I do like the marinade though for chicken...baked or grilled. Both my wife and I love Tzatziki Sauce but we've never tried making it ourselves. Thanks for the idea and the recipe! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
