SUMMER SATURDAY
/
Looking forward to cooking out of my buddy Kathryn Ireland's new book. I have a really good Sneeky recipe in there.
Perfect Picnic
/
Today's adventure was in our own backyard proving that you can have a picnic anywhere! How about for Father's Day?
Get the look: Basket, Glasses, Pitcher, Leather Ice Bucket, Blanket - other option, Boat Plate, Fruit Bowl, Wood Serving Plate, and Nut Bowls
IT'S PEACH TIME
/
Went to pick some for a "fruit in a hat" arrangement. I gathered these from Fair Hills Apple Farm.
CHICKEN ON A CAN
/
Season with roasted garlic, or garlic salt, Tangerines, and Rosemary. Then grab a can of Lila Rose, mimosa, beer, or any other wine or beer in a can - open the can and stick the chicken on it. You can also use a vertical roaster to assist. Cook in the oven for 45 minutes at 375 - this was a 3 pounder / more time needed the bigger the bird. I recommend using a thermometer to get it to the check the temperature. I get my organic chickens from Belcampo. When it comes to serving, I love using these dinner plates - enjoy!
CITY FARM GIRL
/
Belcampo is where I get my eggs and chickens. The real "farm to table" joint - I'm going to make my "chicken on a can" this week so stayed tuned cause I'll be ah posting it!
SIPPIN' ON SUMMERTIME
/
No better way to end a ruff day than with a sip of ice cold prosecco - Hooray!

/

ICE IT
/
A great way to dress up a drink is with these hand crafted ice cubes. Just fill an ice tray half way with water, drop in your choice of colorful items and stick it in the freezer. After 3 hours fill the tray with a second serving of water, filling it to the top. ( If you try this with the trays filled all the way at the start, the items will float to the top and the ice cubes wont look as good.
DO IT DIFFERENT
/
You don’t always have to use flowers to create an arrangement. Try using grass or something even more unexpected like Irish Moss.
