It’s been so warm lately. Too quickly and too soon, IMO. I much prefer a lengthy spring season.
On the other hand, the heat has afforded me a convenient excuse to avoid cooking.
Hey, as Harry S. Truman said, if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
And that’s why our meals, as of late, have morphed to look like this:
What.
Salad and smoothie days are happy days, IMHO.
From Last Week’s Fiesta
“First of all, who can say no to S’mores, seriously. And these S’mores Cookies are such a cool idea. I’m making them ASAP.” — Angie
“Well, I have a weakness for cheesecake and ice cream both, a wonderful combination.” — Liz
“Our grill has been sitting idle since the Grillmaster is too busy with work, but this chicken sounds so good I might just attempt to operate the grill by myself. Can’t be too hard, right?!” — Angie
“Who knew that you could make delicious (and definitely healthier) catsup so easily!” — Liz

The Kick’en Chicken is perfect for Memorial Day BBQ, Miz Helen. I’m so ready for the long weekend. One more week!
LOVE that recipe!
Thank you for the party and feature!
You’re welcome. Thanks for sharing!
I wish it would warm up here… We’re having the coldest May in decades!
But…
What a lovely feature selection. I could happily devour all of them.
Thanks for hosting and have a great week. xx
Oh, really? The weather seems so unpredictable this year. For us it’s been so dry, too. And now we’re waiting for the arrival of the 17-year cicadas. I heard it’s going to be biblical. I don’t know if I should be excited or scared ?
A bit of each? Wishing you well with the invasion, but at least I understand they don’t denude your crops or plantings.
That’s what I heard, too, and I’ve actually experienced cicadas before, back when I lived in the Midwest. They’re very loud, but harmless. Quite pretty, too, in an odd way ?
OMG, what a beautiful salad! We had snow yesterday and a bit more today in my neighborhood…thank you for featuring my House Brand Catsup, I appreciate it! Thanks for hosting, and enjoy your week ahead.
Thanks! Snow in May, wow! I would love some snow right now actually ? Your catsup recipe is a revelation to me. Never thought about homemade ketchup before, but it’s actually a great idea. You can make your own variations, spicy…sweet…whatever you like!
Uh… snow??? Have a good week no matter what, however.
We’re freezing here on the east coast of Australia lol, so it’s warm stews & casseroles for us!
Thank you for hosting!
Blessings,
Jennifer
Warm stews sound good to me, anytime really. We’re staying indoors anyway and we have the AC blasting away ?
Love the salad and the smoothie. Now, I need to make some, too.? Happy Fiesta Friday, Angie.♥️
We’re making more smoothies as we speak, Jhuls. Lots of strawberries and blackberries involved, my faves ? Thanks for cohosting! ❤️❤️
