Saturday Night Football Dinner

Still trying to stay on track for the Puerto Rico 15 pound challenge... last night we had grilled chicken and grilled veggies.
Lee basically grilled the chicken and basted it with BBQ sauce, and we have this cool wire basket that you can grill veggies or shrimp in.
While he was busy, I decided to cutesy up the table a bit and suprise him. This was one of those days where we spent the whole day together and I was feeling a little sweet on him.The lemon thing came to mind while in the store, and I thought of The Breakup. Didn't really like that movie, it was depressing, but the lemon thing was funny.
The barbeque sauce Lee used was Sweet Baby Rays and we really liked it. It was sweet and tangy, and not real smoky.

When all was said and done, dinner was wonderful and we ate it while we watched the Cowboys whip the Eagles!After dinner I whipped up some strawberry shortcake. The other day I pulled out the Betty Crocker cookbook, opened it to a recipe of Yellow Cake, and had all the ingredients. The store had strawberries on an awesome sale, and I had some whipping cream in the fridge.
Turned out YUMMY!
