The Daily Eat: Fresh Strawberry Bars.


I knew the day would come, I just wasn’t sure when. This week we have our first repeat offender on The Daily Eat – strawberries! They’re one of my very favorite summer foods and I have too many tasty recipes bookmarked not to share them with you. Besides, they’re in the prime of their season and we should all take advantage! I hope you enjoy Strawberry Week 2.0!

Fresh Strawberry Bars that let a strawberry be a strawberry without taking away from or adding to its natural goodness. These bars are really easy and I think it would be a snap to switch out the top for different berries!

The Daily Eat: Apricot Chiffon Pie + Apricot Round Up.



My grandmother is a pro at chiffon pies, which is quite possibly why they’re really the only type of pie that I like. Her specialties were peach and strawberry, but I’m thinking this Apricot Chiffon Pie is worth a shot, too!

Beautiful Bunks.

This is the picture of grown-up sleepaway camp. Comfy-cozy looking beds, each tucked away in their own little nook with pretty teal curtains for privacy. Patio doors leading out into what I can only imagine is a deck overlooking a sparkling lake or dewy forest. Yes, I think I’ll be quite comfortable here during Rest Hour.

On the Rocks: Apricot Daiquiri.


I’m not normally into your typical girly drinks, but this Apricot Daiquiri intrigues me. I really like that so much of the actual fruit is in there – almost makes this cocktail seem healthy. Yeah, let’s take that rationale and run with it… I’m getting my daily fruit by drinking this!

Ingredients:
– 1 part rum
– 1 part juice of a lime
– 1/2 part apricot brandy
– 3 apricots peeled and stoned
– ice

Mix all with ice in a blender.Pour into a chilled glass. Serves 1.
