Cooking in August… literally!

Just like that, it’s August… and we begin to feel our lazy days of summer are flying by, regardless of how hard we try to slow it down. Last-minute evening walks on the beach as the sun starts to set earlier every day to hikes in our beautiful parks on Sundays help us feel like we are at least enjoying those last moments of the golden sun.

August’s “dog day” rep is well-earned, given it tends to be the hottest month of the year. (True statement if you have been in the shop or kitchen area this month!) So limiting time in the kitchen while waiting for the heat to break is key. Our weekly freshly prepared meals are ideal. These simple dinners require only 30 minutes in your preheated oven and make good use of all the colorful produce that’s readily available.

And on a quick hot note, we want to shout out to our girls… Happy 24!
