Grilled chicken, peach dessert

Grilled chicken, peach dessert

I would normally grill chicken thighs instead of breasts, but this is a good recipe for breasts and some kids (and some adults) won’t eat a thigh. The brown sugar in the marinade will give you dark grill marks. The first time I made this, I didn’t think there was enough marinade to save a quarter cup so you might want to double the ingredients. Pounding the breasts a bit will cut down on the cooking time.

Regeneration Singers bring memories

Regeneration Singers bring memories

I was really impressed with the Regeneration Singers reunion at Homecoming 2022 on Sunday. I remember Kathy being in the group and hoping to be involved with them when I was old enough. Unfortunately, they disbanded after director Arnold Sherman left Rockdale around 1977 when I was in eighth grade. But I could never sing anyway and still can’t so it was probably all for the best. The last thing anyone needs is for me to sing on them.
