I thoroughly enjoyed this summer, more than past ones in fact. Oddly enough, it was a pretty stressful summer, but we still made some wonderful memories.
Creating experiences is really what it is all about each season. I love how each season has something special and unique that no other time of year has. Summer is special every year, although all years are different, there are those elements that keep us coming back for more.
Berries, popsicles, long days, fireflies, cold drinks, flip flops….little details only found in summer 🙂
I have made it very clear this past week that FALL is my true love, but one of my goals this year was to live more in the moment, so I have been savoring summer the last few weeks.
Since today is Labor Day, I feel like we can OFFICIALLY say goodbye to summer and HELLO to fall. In honor of that, I wanted to share with you a round up of my most popular summer recipes and some summer highlights. These recipes had the most pins and shares!

Happy Labor Day Alexis! Hope you and your family are enjoying the weekend. It’s been more busy than relaxing although I am squeezing in a few hours to be a lump in the sofa. Weather is on the start of a heat wave again… Sigh. Bay Area summers tend to start after Labor Day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend! I have a cardio kickboxing class at 7. Love the social interaction and burning off stress.
Thank you Laurie! Happy Labor Day, I hope you enjoyed it! We are still having such hot days, but I keep praying for those cooler days soon to come. That class sounds like fun! I always enjoy burning off stress like that 🙂
I’m so glad I found your blog this summer! I hope you had a great Labor Day.
Thank you Sheryl! I am so happy we’ve connected 🙂 I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
I am looking forward to summer, as today it is nice outside but I am so bloody cold, but then I am not well in fact I feel like death warmed up except that I am cold so not that warmed up at all
I definitely don’t enjoy being cold!
Yummy foods, lovely photos, and I’m right there with you and FALL being my FAVE 🙂 Thanks for a delightful visit via Foodie Friday. 🙂
Thank you Kaye! Fall really is the best 🙂
YUM – so many great choices!! I definitely want to try the fruit crisp. My husband will love that!! Thank you for sharing with us at the #HomeMattersParty
