After our picnic we headed into town for a free concert in the park. What a beautiful night! it was hot during the day but as evening approached we enjoyed a cooling breeze and a spectacular sunset. Get out and enjoy these summer evenings, they won't last forever:>)

Summer nights seem just right for fresh strawberry lemonade, fresh blueberry pie (made by my sweetie, "Mr. Dessert") and an evening with friends. Our friends brought a salad and we grilled some Mini Ranch Turkey Burgers (add 1/4 cup of bread crumbs and they hold together much better on the grill) These are so good, they are our recipe of the summer for having friends over, and they all want the recipe!

Earl...that is the prettiest pie I ever saw and I KNOW it tasted even better than it looked.
ReplyDeleteWe are enjoying our evenings out...when it cools off a little. I do enjoy summer so much and it must be wearing roller skates 'cause it is rolling by waaaay too fast...
Your pie is beautiful and I bet it was delicious. Summer nights are the best.

Wow, that sounds like a perfect evening! I enjoyed just reading about it. That bb pie looks beautiful and that lemonade so yummy.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to peruse your blog for that turkey burger recipe.
This is one of the prettiest summer pictures I've seen!! You have a gift in knowing how to photograph beauty. Great advice you gave also. I can't believe July is soon over.
ReplyDeleteI love those kind of special times with friends or family.
ReplyDeleteAnd, that pie is so pretty. ;-)
Oh Kathy! That looks sooo delicious! What a perfect summer day!

Hi Kathy, Sounds like the perfect summer evening with friends and a delicious meal. We make the turkey burgers too and love them. I make them ahead with hamburger seasoning, then form patties in a special press and freeze them. When it comes time to grill, they go on frozen and hold together nicely. My mom started this many years ago with the make ahead and freeze idea and now I do it too. We always have burgers ready for a cookout. I have not tried the added bread. I will have to try this too. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed catching up on your lovely blog. Always the best posts.
Blessings to you.
Hugs, Celestina Marie
It sound like you had a wonderful evening. Blueberry pie, lemonade and a concert. A perfect summer night.

Gorgeous photo!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd love those burgers :) Earl is so talented with desserts! He should have a bakery shop...I'll bet he would love one.
Hi Kathy, thanks for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment. The cross stitch sampler is one that I purchased finished, I just had to frame it. I framed it in a stock size frame but it really needs a custom frame which I did not want to spend the money on now. Up high with the quilts you don't really notice that the frame is not a perfect fit! LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
