Happy weekend! We have a fun few days ahead with Father’s Day and some strawberry picking planned. Wishing you a lovely weekend filled with good food and sunshine.

This week on the blog I shared a selection of quintessential summer recipes perfect for backyard gatherings and easy dinners: pimento cheese pasta salad, summer shrimp salad rolls, and grilled steakhouse pizza. I also published a new installment of my Summer Fridays series, full of seasonal favorites and simple ideas to enjoy the warm weather.

I’d love to hear what you’re enjoying this weekend — leave a note below! xo
