May is such a month of grand expectations. I am already making a mental list of the things that I must do this summer: road trips, roasted corn, river days, wooded hikes, watermelon messes, farm visits, wine tastings, picnics, camping, barbecues.

So, friends, let’s make lists of all the essential, wonderful, leisurely things that need doing this summer. And let’s hold ourselves to it. I’m pretty convinced we’ll be happier for it.
And because I am ridiculously excited about summer eating, too, I’ve been making some summery dishes over on Etsy:
