Preview of Summer??

Happy Tuesday, friends! I promised you all a regular post and I am here to deliver!

My day was pretty normal, went on a bike ride around my neighborhood, walked around downtown with my pal CJ, then came home to make dinner! My dad was in the mood for hamburgers, so we went to the grocery store to buy all the fixins'! Instead of ground beef, I chose to go with ground extra lean ground turkey as it was much lower in fat and calories. (Plus, my dad is watching his cholesterol so too much red meat is not a wise choice for him.)

We got home and tossed those burgers on the grill and I began making the rest of the food. My plate consisted of a turkey burger topped with Dijon mustard, spinach and radicchio salad, and a large sweet potato. My meal was fantastic and I gobbled it up!


My mom cut up a fresh watermelon on the side to eat with our dinner. I am not usually a big watermelon fan, but this one was juicy and delicious!
watermelon-y!

The taste just reminded me of summer. And with the temperatures topping at 89 degrees today, it sure felt like summer too!

After dinner, we decided to get some Rita's for dessert and I thought it would be fun to give Daisy her first taste of ice cream! Let's just say, she is a fan of vanilla custard...




The middle picture makes me laugh every time I see it. She looks like a little platypus or something!!

Does a particular food remind you of a certain season?
