Aruba Bound
What were the highlights of your July? I tried to post plenty of no-bake and no-fuss recipes this month, especially since it’s the peak of summer. Very few people have the time or desire to stand in a (hot) kitchen all day and cook when it’s warm outside, or the kids are out of school, and the outdoors or your family rather than the kitchen is calling your name. In non-food related matters, the antique shopping finds I scored were fun. And of course, our month-long trip to Aruba that I knew I had coming was the total highlight.
