Encouraging Hearts and Home: Scrumptious Summer Flavors

Though summer hasn't officially started yet, Memorial day weekend often kicks off those feeling of summer and I start to crave all the foods I think of as summer-- grilled meats and veggies, fresh fruits, lots of cold drinks and frozen treats.  So many wonderful summer recipes were linked up with us at last week's party that I decided to feature a few of them.



And Now, It's Time for This Week's Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop!  

 

Join your Encouraging Hearts & Home Co-Hosts each week for encouragement and support for your heart & your home. We hope to provide a space that builds each other up and lends a helping hand along the way. With all the negativity in the world, let's shine a positive light!
