Ahhhh, Summer

Our weather was so awful for so long that I feel liberated by spring! It was odd for a week or two, but now that the trees have leaves (mostly), it almost feels like summer. Over the weekend, I indulged in my favorite summer foods -- ham salad sandwiches on very fresh bread, grapes and fresh guacamole. I'm trying to get through a monster sized package of corn tortillas so I even made fresh tortilla chips last night. (I should try baking them, actually, hmmm.)

So, welcome to spring. Make yourself a fresh gin and tonic and pull up a deck chair on the porch.
