Melon Margarita Jelly Shots
I know, I know…how cute are these?! Watermelon Margarita Jelly Shots! Can’t you see them at you next BBQ? I know I can. The use of fresh watermelon juice really makes these extra refreshing! The limes definitely require some work to remove all of the pulp, but the awesomeness of how cute they are is more than worth it. If you use the chocolate chips as the watermelon seeds, I recommend that you eat the chocolate chips first before the jel... Read More ›

Vodka Watermelon Slices
Nothing says summer like biting into a fresh, juicy watermelon. It’s one of nature’s most perfect foods because you don’t have to add anything to it to make it delicious! Well…unless you want to add some vodka. Which is what I highly suggest doing. If you make your watermelon a vodka infused watermelon, it will be even more perfect. Perfectly boozy, that is. Here’s what you need: One whole seedless watermelon One bottle (yo... Read More ›

Watermelon Cake
Now’s the time to start thinking about summer entertaining! It's when we’re itching to try new recipes and party foods.  This watermelon cake was on the top of my list, since it can be served at backyard BBQ's, 4th of July gatherings, pool parties and everything in between.  It starts with a Betty Crocker cake mix, and it’s easy to design.  The addition of pink lemonade concentrate adds a slightly sweet-tart flavor, and is used in pla...

Summer in a Glass
Summer is drawing to a close here in the Midwest.

5 Easy Gazpacho Soups
Gazpacho offers the same refreshment, ease of preparation and melange of flavors that salad does—but in a soup. It is, hands down, my favorite way to start a warm-weather meal, particularly if I’m hosting an al fresco dinner party. The beauty of gazpacho is that no heat is required. Just chop, puree and serve—easy-peasy. Start with Basic Gazpacho, and then move on to the variations, all based on different fruits (or cooling cucumber). Pic... Read More ›
