Perfect Summer Recipes

Here are a few of our favorite recipes for summer and barbecue season.

  3. Just what I needed today! Some of your great recipes! I can testify to the chicken and the potato salad....both delicious!!!!
    I haven't made a jello cake since my kids were at home. That sounds wonderful and refreshing for a dessert this time of year. I'll have to try your coleslaw as you hit a home run with every recipe of yours that I try! Thank you so much! Perfect 4th menu!

  7. Wow! Just stumbled upon your blog for the first time and can't believe I've never seen it before (I've been blogging over two years!!). Two recent posts really caught my eye as I'm just beginning maintenance after losing 30 pounds and we've just returned from a seven week trip through New England (we live in East Tennessee). So your posts about losing a few pounds and eating while on vacation got my attention. Can't wait to read more and know you better.
