It\u2019s the Fourth of July already!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>This is a big deal at our house\u2014almost like Christmas.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>We have four family birthdays in a one week period around the Fourth, so it\u2019s a HUGE celebration.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>We get together with family and friends and make a weekend of the celebration!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>Everyone always brings such great dishes to share.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>I like to bring things that are in season, because they taste their best now!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I picked up\u00a0our CSA bag this week from Wenninghoff\u2019s Farm.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>It was full of beautiful varieties of lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>With so much lettuce, I brought a salad to share with my co-workers, with all of the fixings.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>In our office, many of us bring treats for our birthday.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>A lettuce salad was not chocolate or ice cream\u2014but just as yummy.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>It was enjoyed by all!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With summer gatherings, it is always exciting for me to try new recipes and share.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>I have included one of my favorite recipes for Black Eyed Pea and Corn Salad, and a new recipe using blueberries.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>Give them a try, and see if they are your new favorites too!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
