I think Tony thought dinner was the appetizer!  I marinated the chicken cutlets in 6 ounces of Greek yogurt, minced garlic, fresh grated ginger and lime juice all day.  I think I over cooked the chicken a tad, but it takes me a while to get back into the grilling swing!

Our side yard is starting to look green!

We got these shrimp at the Japanese grocery store on Hannah's birthday.  Just 4 minutes in the microwave, and then Hannah Pam fried the bottoms to make them crunchy.  We loved them, Tony thought they would be better deep fat fried!  Best part - only 25 calories each!

So I am off to watch LAST WEEKS American Idol so I am not too far behind.  We also have Chopping Block on DVR for later.  Hope everyone had a great hump day and I’ll see you in the morning!
