What’s for Dinner? Sunday Link up #480

Posted on July 14, 2024 by HelenFern

I’m planning what’s for dinner this week. It’s too hot to cook, so what do you suggest? Help me plan some meals!

I love lazy summer afternoons. I love to sit on the deck, looking out at our completely imperfect and total beautiful yard, sipping coffee and munching on homemade treats. It’s the perfect place to think and plan.

I’ve made granita before and I had everything I needed on hand. Once I decided what all I was going to use (mint or lemon verbena or lemon balm or …), I went out back and picked some mojito mint.

The finished granita was just very slightly minty and very refreshing! Continue reading →

It’s July and it’s hot. The challenge is to make a dinner that everyone wants to eat, but has little prep and clean up. Who wants to do chores after dinner on a hot, sweltering day? Not me!

Show us the delicious meals you eat on a dog day afternoon.
