Summer Tastes Like Rhubarb
While living in the tropics, I hunted for what summer flavour I had missed. It did not take long to realize what it was; I was craving the sour-sweet-tart taste of rhubarb. I remember trying substitutes to feed some of that summer craving, passionfruit got close, but nothing tasted like summer. I am in love with the strange, stocky plant. Rhubarb is visually a unique addition to landscaping and flower gardens, with stocks varying from red to pink or spackled to green. While wide varieties are eatable, some are decorative and can be highly toxic, and the leaves are poisonous (but still have some great uses).

The Hamburger!
The hamburger, an American classic! Let’s face it summers can get hot! Having hamburgers cooking on the BBQ is a must! It’s what summer is for! A hamburger patty crispy on the outside but juicy on the inside, lightly cooked buns to give it that extra crunch, our favourite topping and condiments in between giving it more flavour. We all love the Smokey smell and the savoury taste of a hamburger that has been cooked over fire. BBQing burgers is an American tradition.

Lemon Thyme Bars
“Summer”, is a word with many connotations. For many, summer means s’mores and swimsuits, hot dogs and hot days, fresh fruit and fireworks, and water in any form. For Arizonans, it means clustering around pools and trying to keep cool with buckets of ice and refreshing citrus.

What is cold-pressed oil and why is it considered good
When it comes to cooking, oil is an important ingredient. It can help to fry food, add flavor, and prevent sticking. Cold-pressed oil is a type of oil that is made by using a special process that doesn't involve heat. This means that the oil retains its natural nutrients and flavors.

My Favourite Summer Food
Summer Time is a hot season and eating is something I do little of The thought of turning on the stove or oven does not appeal to me and not being much of cook as it is in any season making a greek salad doesn't involve cooking there is nothing nicer than a greek salad you have thrown together yourself and a nice cool drink and no not talking about an alcoholic drink I am talking about a nice glass of coke or pepsi with ice.

Strawberry Pasta Sauce
Strawberries belong to summer, a juicy bite on hot days, a sweet treat baked into 4th of July cobblers. So, lucky for the summer aficionados of this singularly scrumptious berry, of which I count myself one, I have cracked the strawberry wide, wide open. I discovered the ultimate way by which to incorporate strawberries into more than salads, desserts, smoothies, and breakfast parfets. I discovered how to make this berry the centerpiece of a new dish. I had, indeed, revolutionized, pioneered, innovated the strawberry and what it was capable of—instead of tomatoes as the base of pasta sauce, I would use strawberries. This stroke of genius was the great synthesis of two things: the summer sweetness of a strawberry and the satisfying slurp of spaghetti.

Hellbent for Berries. Runner-Up in Summer Camp Challenge.
The only bad thing about raspberries is remembering how to spell it. Everything else about the berry is perfect. I first encountered them in my father’s garden. He loved when his children would join him there. Delving into the raspberry bushes involved standing out in the hot sun and bravely facing the dangers of buzzing bees and prickly branches.
