Hotel Deals & Grilled Vegetables

We just came back from a little

trip celebrating our 2nd anniversary.

It was a fun and relaxing weekend.

We went to VA beach and Willamsburg.

Both nights we booked from Hotwire

and were very pleased. The first night 

we stayed at the Founders Inn and Spa

and it was very nice. I would recommend 
it to anyone wanting a nice getaway.

We love Hotwire- it's gamble

with not knowing where your are

staying until you pay. But if you book

above 3 star you usually aren't disappointed.

The second night was Country Inn & Suites. 
If you wonder why I am telling you about this 
it's because others need to know about it too.
We payed for both nights with what one night in 
an ocean-front VA Beach hotel would cost.

I love to know people's travel secrets.

Here are a few photos from our trip.

Then we will get to the grilled vegetables.

Now the recipe...

Mix together marinate and let vegetables sit for awhile.

I marinated chicken along with the vegetables.

Lay 2 layers of foil on the frill and grill until slightly soft.

Pair with chicken and salad. Mmm... summer.

Grilled Vegetables

 8 cups vegetables

6 chicken thighs

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1/2 cup oil

4 garlic cloves, crushed

1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 Tbsp. fresh chives, chopped

2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. pepper

Mix together marinate and pour over vegetables and chicken.

Toss until coated. Poke the chicken with a knife so the marinate 
can soak through quickly. Let set 15-20 minutes.

Grill vegetables over foil until slightly soft.

Enjoy,

Hope
