It’s roundup time. I’m in the middle of moving this weekend, so I didn’t have new content ready — and the next few days will be busy getting settled into a new house. I’m excited to organize and make the space mine, even though with three small kids it won’t stay tidy for long. Still, I love to organize; it makes me happy to see things in order.
With summer here, grilling is on my mind. Kabobs are perfect for warm-weather meals: quick, versatile, and fun. Food on a stick feels like an instant celebration, so I’ve gathered 17 great grilled kabob recipes that cover sides, mains, and desserts.

Keep skewers soaked before grilling, alternate ingredients for even cooking, and watch for flare-ups when using sugary glazes. Enjoy grilling season — food on a stick never gets old.
