sweet and sassy kebabs.

a few tuesday nights ago, i was trying to figure out what to have for dinner. i seriously do not know how my mom comes up with a different meal to make each night of the week. i have a hard enough time trying to come up with something to make for just one night! i was thumbing through the new Roanoke Apostolic Christian Church cookbook and stumbled upon a recipe for sweet and sassy kebabs. it sounded really good and didn't look like it would take too long, so i decided to give it a go. they were a lot of fun to make and they turned out to be delicious! i also found a recipe for blueberry muffins in the Roanoke-Benson Band cookbook that was very good.

the kebabs.

and the blueberry muffins.
