summer

everything tastes better during summer, don’t you think?

like the turkey lettuce wraps we had for dinner last night

fruity smoothies blitzed to oblivion in the vitamix

and fruit salads made with strawberries, blueberries, peach and apricots & plums from D’s brother and sister-in-law’s tree

or a super quick salad of mixed greens, pistachios, cranberries and goats cheese, tossed with a simple vinaigrette - we paired this with a turkey burger… delish!

it definitely feels summery here in SF…

ripples in the sand down by crissy field

not a cloud in the sky

peaceful

we really and truly were having gorgeously warm weather!

look!  shadows!

and, then the fog rolls in…

ah well, it was nice while it lasted!

yay america

For those of you who do not have easy access to a barbeque…

or who, like myself, did not get to partake in the fun 4th of july festivities waaaaaah and feel left out…

who knew?!  you could make s’mores in your oven!

Use your broiler to toast the marshmallows

sandwich between two chocolate digestive biscuits

remove the wooden skewers

ta da… s’mores!

Happy 4th of July everyone!
