It’s the longest day of the year, guys! Happy summer to all of you!
If it were up to me, I would spend the whole day at the beach today. Unfortunately, Mother Nature seems to have a different agenda.
It’s been wet the entire week… and unbearably humid… and the mosquitoes, oy! I feel like I’m being eaten alive every time I’m out there.
Even Skye doesn’t want to go exploring in the backyard. The humidity gets to her, too. Look at her!
She’s always panting when she’s outside. She needs her summer haircut.
Anyway, guys, stay cool! Literally and figuratively.
Time for Features!
“I love that this omelette is stuffed full of seasonal veggies and fresh cheese! How else would you want to start your morning off?” — Ai
“I have to second Ai here. If I had my way, I would want to wake up to an omelet everyday. Preferably, one that’s stuffed with veggies and lots of cheese.” — Angie
“I love ribs, and Mollie’s looks amazing! And I love that she gives three options for cooking these: on the grill, in the Instant Pot, and in the oven.” — Ai
“I chose this in honor of Skye. She’s a good dog who deserves healthy homemade treats. Maybe her momma would kindly spare her time to make them. Wait, that’s me!” — Angie
“I’ve been trying to add more fish in my diet. Having said that, I can’t even remember the last time I had fish. Duh!! This Za’atar Baked Cod reminds me to go directly to the store and grab some fish. It sounds so exotic and delicious, just right for a Friday treat. And it’s healthy, too!” — Angie

I was thrilled to see my veggie omelette featured, thank you so much Ai and Angie!
Skye looks so cute, but I guess a short hair style will be more comfortable for her. I am going to try the doggie biscuits for my Ty, a male cocker spaniel/poodle mix; he is sensitive to gluten, so this recipe is perfect for him.
Thank you for hosting another great party, Angie!
You’re welcome, Irene. We just love omelets! Yeah, Skye really needs a haircut. She hates going to the groomers. They can never touch her face, so most of the time I still end up trimming her myself ?
Hi guys, thanks for featuring my ribs!! Such a nice a.m. surprise. It’s been cool and humid and hot and humid and cool and rainy and hot and rainy!! But I am getting a lot of yard work done!
Happy FF!!
You’re welcome, Mollie. I have a thing for jerks. Not the human kind, but the pork or chicken kind ? I’m leaving the yard work to the menfolk for now. They don’t seem to mind sweating ?
My son and his girlfriend have been coming over to help me! Thank goodness because my yard and gardens have been SO neglected with three summers that I was in South Dakota! The creeping charlie alone has taken over huge areas…but it’s getting better!
I forgot to tell you how lovely Skye looks! Gibson RIP never liked the heat, but he was an older dog. Nothing phases Chance. He’s like a locomotive! He just charges through everything, rain sleet hail snow heat.
Those ribs look awesome!

I am so sorry you can’t get out into your garden, good weather for catching up on your reading though. Happy solstice.
I dash in and out just to pick a few things here and there, and to look at some plants. I like looking at plants ? When the mosquitoes discover me, I run inside! I need a mosquito zapper; citronella candles don’t work!

Btw, I can co-host on July 5.?
Thanks! She’s just a spoiled brat ? You’re on for July 5. Your cohost is Antonia.
Okie dokie, Angie. 😀
Thanks so much for the feature of my za’atar fish and rice. I love that spice mix so much that I travel with it 🙂 Skye looks so adorable that I want to reach out and hug him!! Its a beautiful summer day in VA today…just got back from a 5k and hoping to make Irene’s veggie omelet for lunch <3
You’re welcome. I need to find a good source for za’atar. I understand there are a few versions out there. Skye said thank you for the compliment ?
I made mine at home as I had dried a lot of oregano and thyme from my herb pot. There are versions that use wild thyme that I believe are really good but making it at home allows you to use what you have. I saw a beautiful version at the local farmers market that I had to buy, they were selling it paired with a lovely Lebanese olive oil. Check out your local market and taste it before you buy.
Thanks so much for featuring my dog treat recipe 🙂
No problem, thanks for participating in the fiesta ?
Thanks so much for hosting! I’m linking up with WHO ARE YOU BLOGGING FOR? PART 4 OF 5, THE PINK DIARY, and a SHORT STORY PROMPT LINK PARTY 6 for fun and creativity! Won’t you join me? No story is too short!
Thanks, Dee! Will check them out.
Thanks for hosting the party! Have a great week.
You, too, Helen! ?
Yummy! It seems like I could finish all of this!
That’s great, Rita! Don’t forget to vote for your favorite links to be featured on the next fiesta!
