I had no idea that it has been MONTHS since I posted last. There are so many days when a blog idea strikes and the business of life takes over, thus the blog never happens. Maybe I'll add that to my 2016 plan. Whatever 2015 was--I am determined to make 2016 a bit brighter, a bit lighter and a bit more mine. I'm a living attempt to rework a lifestyle--to eat better, to plan healthier and to insert some exercise. I hope to make more time for myself to spend a bit more time doing what I enjoy whether it be taking pictures or cooking or writing. I continue to dream of a horizon where I can watch a sunset, but until then, I'll keep on keeping on in the Midwest with an excess of trees, a lack of fine Mexican food and a shortage of good music and drink.
It's Sum..Sum...Summertime and Fern's calendar is no more (or less) out of control than it usually is. With a full calendar this week, not to mention, she can't find the notebook with little notes of blog inspiration, she'll share with you a few of her favorite summer recipes as the #1 grilling day of the year approaches. Since the #1 Grilling Day of the Year has been mentioned, let's just clear this up right now--get BEEF on that grill, please. There are 29 lean cuts of beef that won't break a diet, and there are many on that list that won't bust a budget either! That's the unique thing about the responsibly raised beef in this country, there are options for everyone: conventionally raised and fed beef, grass fed beef, natural and even organically raised beef. Please find something that fits your kitchen and your lifestyle and fire up that grill!! I mentioned favorite summer recipes, I should mention that I make some of these ALL year long. D
