Well... After four straight weeks of business travel (Montreal, Toronto, Edmonton and San Diego) I finally had a chance to cook. We spent a good deal of the day cleaning house in anticipation of my daughter's high school graduation party in a couple of weeks, so i kept it simple.

I took the jerk seasoning that I bought from Ruth at St. John Spice and made a paste with some olive oil and rubbed it on the chicken and let it sit for an hour. Then I skewered the chicken with some red and green bell peppers, Vidalia onions, mushrooms and pineapple. I rubbed the skewers with some olive oil and sprinkled with some additional seasoning and then grilled them on the gasser on low heat. I also par cooked some fingerling potatoes and then totally forgot to put them on the skewers! I skewered them separately and cooked them by themselves. We served it all over a grilled pita and topped with some salsa with chopped mango added.

All of this food porn is driving me CRAZY!!! It's 8am and I want dinner. I think I will come over to all of ya'll's houses and let you cook for me (O:

I would love to be able to cook like that. Hell, I would love to be able to cook. Never seem to have the time. We always eat out for dinner and it would be really nice to have a home cooked meal...especially ones that look like the ones ya'll always post. Those look like restaurant food!

Everything looks yummy! I have some food porn photos to share with you from our trip, I just have to get them uploaded to flickr. I finished typing in all the text of my trip report yesterday (all 20 days worth, it is VERY long :? I may have to do some editing), and am going to attempt to unlock the mystery of photoshop after work. Soon come! :D
