Are you having the winter blues? Are you in a summer frame of mind? I am. I’m in the mood to feel sunshine and hot, sticky air, wearing clothes that don’t require layers. I want to cook in my kitchen with its sliding door open so I can smell the aromas of the lavender plants in my garden. Cooking in the summer season is so nice, because fresh local fruits, vegetables and herbs are available. And during those warm months, it’s wonderful to have a kitchen next to a deck or garden, allowing you to go outside while your meal is cooking. Out there, you can sit down and sip a glass of wine, lemonade or sparkling water, enjoying the sunshine and warmth. I found some kitchens like that, and I would love to have the pleasure of cooking in them. Let’s see if they put you in a summertime spirit too.
You don’t have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces, just good food from fresh ingredients. Julia Child
I hope you’re having a great weekend.
