I love summer when the living is easy…gardening, grilling, and maybe a little light canning. I’m not about putting up quarts of tomatoes (although you should see how many plants we put in), but love tinkering with small batches of something special. Cowboy Candy Sweet Hot Pickled Peppers fit the bill & bonus…they go right in the fridge and don’t have to be “processed.” (But you can “can” them if you wish.)

I love making fabulous little somethings to spark up dinner, especially when that fabulous little something is as delish and as easy as these classic Pickled Red Onions.

Do any of you guys have that one Aunt? The one that always made you feel special and had just a little something extra? Mine was my Aunt Ginny, my Dad’s sister. She was the fun Aunt, and she was fabulous. I have a couple of her recipes on my site, but my favorite is The Best Beef Stroganoff.

Yanno, I’m always trying new recipes and this Chicken Sandwich from Bon Appetit’s March issue caught my eye. See, I was just down in Georgia and had an opportunity to eat at Chick Fil A for the second time, ever. I think it’s the best fast food – and I don’t usually quite lower myself to eat fast food! I know, I know, I’m a snob about some things…life is just too short for mediocre food.

When I made Momofuku’s Bo Ssam last week, I was looking for something cool and refreshing to go with it. I came across this simple Cucumber Salad from the New York Time’s recipe file.
