11 Summer Recipes & Necessities

As the school year has come to a close, so has the college kitchen.
Although we still cook during summer, our meals mainly consist 
of fruits and fresh veggies we get at the farmers market on Saturday morning.

Here is this semester's final post:
11 Summer Recipes & Necessities
to keep you busy while you enjoy your freedom, summer, & childish wild-side.

Come back in the fall when we will begin posting more lovely recipes we cook in our college kitchen!

1. As an English major, I can't help but say that everyone should have a summer reading list. 
Add this to yours.

2. Bacon, Lettuce, & Tomato Spring Rolls. This is summer in edible form.
Recipe is here.

3. Whimsical, pastel ice cream cups with baby spoons. 
Make your own or get them at Sur La Table.

4. Soil Mates by Sara Alway writes about how to become a garden goddess through
plotting your own veggie patch.
Get it at Anthropologie.

5. Try this Strawberry Summer Cake recipe from smittenkitchen.
Or try anything she makes because it is all delicious.

6. No summer is complete without homemade hummus. 
Thanks to Martha Stewart, you can save $$ at the grocery store 
and still dip your green beans, crackers, or whatever.


7. Something blue ice cream tool. 
Of course, it's from Sur La Table.

8. Summer is full of parties - grad parties, birthday parties, pool parties, just because parties.
And to quench all those thirsty guests you need a lot of liquids
and this one is, well, cute (and a necessity?).
Buy it here.


9. Nope, not a salad recipe. A Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing recipe.

10. A summer recipes & necessities wouldn't be complete without a new 
Summer Peach Wine Cooler beverage to add to your book. 
Coming from the #1 college party campus in America (University of Wisconsin-Madison),
it obviously contains some alcohol.
