Hey there! I see I got here just in time! Yay! OK, let's see:
ReplyDeleteMy favorite summer activity is anything that has to do with outside, but especially riding bikes with my man.
My absolute favorite item in the Ketelcopia Etsy shop is the Home Is Where the Heart Is mixed media collage! So cool!
I'll be posting about this giveaway soon, and I'll come back here to let you know about it.
My favorite summer recipe: Go to the store. Buy a giant watermelon. Cut it open. Eat the fruit and spit out the seeds. Yum! (I hope that counts!)
So hard to choose, but you can sign me up for the vintage ring. It rocks!
Thanks for the giveaway day. Glad you got to spend time at the pool - another of my favorite summer activities!
My favorite Summer activity is attending outdoor Rock concerts!!

I love to make Herbal Sun Tea in the summer.
ReplyDeleteI usually grow Lemon Balm , Lemon Verbena and Pineapple Sage . I add a few sprigs of those three, some thyme and as many green tea bags as desired. I add water in a gallon size glass Container. This can be left outside for a few hours before enjoying over ice.
I also steep Rosemary in Wine and enjoy a few glasses in the evening.

Summer recipe
ReplyDeleteMexican-Style Summer Salad
Avocado adds wonderful substance to this refreshing salad flavored with lime and a hint of cumin. If desired, substitute jicama, peeled and cut into sticks, for the cucumber slices.
3 Tbs. fresh lime juice (1 large lime)
1/2 tsp. plus 1/8 tsp. salt
4 small tomatoes, cut into 3/4-inch dice
(2 1/2 cups)
3 medium Haas avocados, cut into
3/4-inch dice (2 cups)
3 scallions (white and light green
parts), thinly sliced
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 Tbs. mild olive oil or vegetable oil
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
2 medium heads Boston lettuce, torn
into large pieces (8 cups)
1 small cucumber, peeled, quartered
lengthwise, seeded and
thinly sliced diagonally (1 cup)
2 Tbs. coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
In medium non-metallic bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Add tomatoes, avocados, scallions and garlic. Using rubber spatula, gently fold to combine. Season to taste with pepper and set aside.
In large bowl, whisk together oil, cumin, remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Add lettuce and toss. Season with pepper. Divide lettuce among plates. Top each with mound of avocado mixture. Sprinkle with cucumber and cilantro and serve.

Hmmmmm! It's hard to pick just one activity as a summer fave but swimming in anything cool would probably top the list.
ReplyDeleteALL three items are super! Thanks for the great giveaway!

An easy-peasy summer recipe hit is for shrimp dip. Mash a block of cream cheese with a fork, mash in a (drained) can of tiny broken shrimp and add your favorite thousand island dressing until it's to your taste. You can substitute crab or imitation crab meat. Serve with crackers or dip chips. If you use chips, thin it out a bit more with the dressing.

Ok, I really really want the tutorial! But sigh, I guess I'll just settle for awesome Free Stuff.;)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite summer activity? Swimming in the San Marcos river, then basking on a rock until I sizzle, and diving right back in! It doesn't get any better!

Hee, and I like your NERD! pendant. I am perhaps just a little bit a nerd. A tiny wee bit. Maybe.
ReplyDeleteMore likely, a whole great big bunch.
Camping!! I love star seeing in the night and fishing by day. It gets you close as a family too!
ReplyDeleteI really adore the pieces of life from your shop!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite summer activity is reading for fun! I spend every semester reading what I'm told, not to mention student papers, but in the summer I can read anything I want!
ReplyDeleteAs for the Etsy shop, my absolute favorite is the Pieces of a Life Bracelet. Key charms, hearts, trees, all things I love in one piece of jewelry!
I don't have a blog, but I did twitter about the giveaway! http://twitter.com/amtonyan

ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun!
Fave Summer time thing is having dinner outside, staying out til the bugs start biting, catching fire-flies.
ReplyDeleteItem is hard to choose...
Recipe would be "Corn on the cob with butter" -"a slice of watermelon" - eating with my hands...
so that ring would sure light up my hands - like a fire-fly!
pools, well yes but lots of sunscreen and a hat are my protection!
Hello Trish - I'm new to your blog and love it! Thank you for hosting this great giveaway. I would love to be entered in all 3 fabulous creations! Our favorite family summer activity is collecting seashells at the beach!
