Hello, friends!  Thanks for coming by!

Today was a picture-perfect Memorial Day.  We went to the beach early, “fished” for driftwood that will hopefully turn up in some projects soon, walked the boardwalk, and even sat down on the benches for a bit to people, dog, and boat watch.  We’re looking forward to a lovely sunset over the lake tonight to cap off the holiday.  I can’t tell you how very blessed we are to live in such an incredibly beautiful area.  I can’t wait to hear how you spent this official first of the summer weekend.

Summer is salad time and so many of you shared the most delicious looking recipes with us at last week’s edition of Project Inspire{d}.   Be sure to check them out and be prepared to fill up your Pinterest board with fun new recipes to try this summer.
