Refreshing Summer Food
To me summer food was anything we could eat around the pool. Anything cool and refreshing. For us that meant Pasta Salad and Three Bean Salad. I know that sounds like a crazy combination. It is really good though. We usually used the box Pasta Salad and canned Three Bean Salad. It was great to just have something you can do quickly and eat beside the pool in the shade and just relax.

Reba's Guacamole
Shortly after I got married, I started helping my mother-in-law in the kitchen when we had large family gatherings. I watched her make pico de gallo, albondigas, tamales, and guacamole. For as long as I can remember, I have loved Mexican food and to be taught how to make these foods was really exciting for me.

The Summer of Stranger Things. Runner-Up in Summer Camp Challenge. Top Story - June 2022.
It was my family's equivalent of zucchini. Not that my brothers and I hadn't had our share of variations on that vegetable: zucchini bread, zucchini casserole, baked zucchini, boiled zucchini, fried zucchini—and on and on. The three of us grew to hate the very site of the indestructible plant slowly taking over my mother's garden. For years afterward I couldn't look at zucchini, never mind eat it, but that summer the speckled green vegetable was impossible to avoid.

One Cheesy Summer
In the United States of America, we celebrate our independance from the English on July Fourth every year. For some people this holiday is an excuse to participate in revelries, for others they take it more literally and use it as an excuse to put their National Pride on full display. But for an enthusiastic majority, The fourth means one thing: Fireworks.

My Summer Go-to Recipe
We live in the South. It's summertime. Enough said. Did you already get a picture of the blaring heat and humidity that makes you lose your mind and want to slap somebody silly? Well, you would if you lived in north Louisiana during those long, hot summer months with absolutely no air to breathe. And who wants to eat under those conditions? Nobody! So I knew I would have to come up with something that kept my family cool on the inside, their sweet tooth satisfied, and their mouths full. (We avoid hangry to keep the slapping down to a minimum.)

Censored Fireworks
Ahh, Censored Fireworks......name of my new band. Come with me, through the tunnels of my strange memory, at least two decades ago. I belong to a middle ages re-enactment group, and we love any excuse for a party (gather) to, well, party! We'd do funky crafts, and eat and drink an unusual potluck of food and beverage - half of them modern foods, half of them period dishes we'd reconstruct from a few surviving cookbooks.

Macaroni Salad
When I was a child, my mother would prepare cool and chilled meals during the summer and one of my favorites was her "Chicken and Macaroni Salad." She would boil a whole chicken, let it cool, and then strip the meat from the bones. The chicken meat would be placed in a covered bowl and placed in the refrigerator as she prepared the rest of the ingredients for this salad.

Fun time with my scout troop
When I first joined my scout troop the scoutmaster showed me how to make a really good meal for camping. After I was shown how to make it, that would be by favorite meal to make, but I would add a few variations to it. He showed me how to make what he called a foil dinner. It was a real simple recipe to make.
