With spring now officially here, we can glimpse summer just over the hill, and that means backyard cookouts, where food on stick got its antediluvian start.

For our post this week, Marc and I decided to kickoff summer fun a little early with recipe links to a few of our "food on a stick" recipes AND a poll on your favorite foods to eat on a pole (pun intended)...

Take the poll (below) and
tell us how you answered
in the comments on this post.

Feel free to write in your own
favorite under the "other" choice.
