Summer!
Here we are, in the thick of it. I know so! I currently have mosquito bites on my legs, sand in my shoes, and an aggressive and unfortunate short tan.
Whats going on in your kitchen? Its youre anything like me popcorn and wine is totally dinner, and pineapple is its own food group in your fridge.
Heres the deal. I did some digging for you. I want you to cook up some treasures this summer, and I dont want you to have to do a lot of searching to find those gems. Itll be hard enough just to turn on your oven.
The best of summer awaits. Get baking!
May this summer bless you with cute sandals, ice cream cones, awesome hair days, wine for lunch, and Old Bay Seasoning.
Heres whats up:
Rainer Cherry Brown Betty. Its like a bread cobbler, with baked cherries. Does that sound weird. Ok its a little weird. But! Theres sugar in it, so its delicious.
This is the best way to avoid rolling out pie crust: Blackberry Pie Bars. Buttery, shortbread crust topped with fresh blackberries ! and crus ty bits on top. For serious. These are impressive.
How about a homemadeBloody Mary? Shut. It. Up. right?
Ok so it might feel like you have to buy three dozen ingredients to make these little gems, but once you buy them, imagine how many cocktails you can have! Think big!
Dear Reader,
I totally made apple pie with juice, a spoon, and a freezer. Its calledApple Pie Granita. Its like an apple pie slurpie.
Thats totally a thing.
I love you,
Joy
A match dreamed up in heaven: Spicy Vegetarian Chili andJalapeno Pepper Jack Scones.
Spicy and cheesy scones. If you roll your eyes at chili fine. But these scones will smack you in the face thats how good they are.
If you can, ! get your body to a beach this summer.
Good grief, I love this place.
Those are just really good words to put together.
Fresh fresh yum!
Chocolate cake with root beer! Seriously. And frosting too! Root Beer Float Cake.
This cake is a major winner at barbecues, anniversary dinners, christenings, housewarmings, and candle lighting ceremonies.
Get in on this action.
Wait is that picture blurry? No its the cake thats blurry. Totes the cake. aaaaawkward.
Im pretty sure that any day that involves a plate that looks like this, is a GOOD day.
Strawberry Blackberry Shortcakes.
Side Note: if youre going to a local strawberry festival, you dont necessarily have to dress up exactly like a strawberry. Its not a strawberry dress up contest its more of a festival with strawberries. I dunno. You might have been confused like me. Glad I could clear that up for you.
Can you eat thisTres Leches Cake all on your own? Youre clearly a friend of mine.
Clearly.
Also, high-five!
This is about theBurnt Banana Chocolate Malted Milkshake not about the insane kitten.
I really really want you to know how good theseToasted Marshmallow Milkshakes taste.

Cookie No-Dough Ice Cream. Yea. Just too clever. No biggie.
Make the cookies. Buy the ice cream Combine the two. Pat yourself on the back. Major.
Sugar Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches.
Fresh fruit pie! Strawberry Banana Cream Pie.
Ps. I ate three hot dogs this evening, and maybe I feel a little guilty. Not guilty enough to eat two slices of ice cream cake. Whatever.
Straight classy.
Mini Chocolate Dipped Bananas.
Dont eat these in public. If you do, please dont make eye contact with anyone while youre eating. Just please.
I know its summer, and I know this is soup. But! Look how fresh and green this soup is!
Its good for you too. Counteract all those hot dogs. On the real.
Dip. Buttermilk Ranch Dressing.
Spread. Chickpea, Mint, and Parsley Spread.
