Hello again and haaappppeee Friday!
Summertime, and the livin’s easy. Isn’t it a great season to be alive? Where there’s loads of sunshine and the best simple food of the year! Beach days and park plays call for easy eats, like the best sandwiches which I happen to be a master maker of as you can see here.
So dig into summer everyone! But first, let’s get into this week’s Friday Faves.
