When I was younger the words “turkey burger” use to make me think “ick”.

If you’re on my mailing list (and I hope you are!) then you already know I’m doing nothing but kabobs for this memorial day. I’m keeping it simple since it will be just my family this year.

Tuna macaroni salad holds a special place in my heart. It reminds me of big summertime cookouts and family reunions in Elberton.

If it’s one thing I love about the warm weather months it’s all the fresh berries that are in season. I LOVE berries. I get so excited when someone brings me fresh berries. There are just so many things that you can make with them; pies, cakes, muffins, jams, jelly, cookies, ice cream….ahhhh berries! I’m seriously going to plant me a ton of berry bushes

Does anything say “summer” better than grilled corn on the cob? There is just something about it that makes me get a visual of summertime whenever I think about it. Corn has always been one of my favorite starches. Normally I roast my corn in the oven, but if it’s warm enough outside to grill then you best believe I’m throwing some corn on the
My grandmother is the best cook in our family. Everyone always calls her when they need a tried and true recipe. Unfortunately, 95% of the time she’s a “add a pinch of this and a shake of that” type cook. If you’re not familiar with playing around with recipes, it’s enough to drive you crazy trying to replicate her cooking. This is when family calls
