Judith Hannemann — Sun, 20 Jul 2014 23:23:00 +0000

We had some really GREAT entries last week–just a few are shown in the graphic above. Looking forward to more tasty treats this week–and it’s the 10th!

I’m starting the party off with this delicious Caramel Graham Cracker Parfait–which someone said was better than sex. I’ll keep quiet on THAT one and let you be the judge

Pin up to 3 links on each day the hop is open and do invite your other blogger friends.Party is open from Monday thru Friday. The following Monday, we start a new post with new recipes that again run through that week’s Friday. Each post will be marked with the week number.

I have a Pinterest board associated with the hop. Anyone who posts either has been or will be invited, so if I miss anyone, please contact me for an invitation. My boards are WELL TRAVELED so you will get engagement. I will also pin selected entries to some very large food boards I pin to over there. If we don’t follow each other already on Pinterest, please follow at least 1 of my non-group boards and I will follow you back–PLEASE let me know you have to be added!!! I try to go through the links, but sometimes I miss someone (not intentionally).

So many wonderful summer recipes have been posted so far!

This party will take us up to the 4th of July, so I’m going to suggest some patriotic entries if my blogger friends have them!

I’ll start this off with something patriotic–and EASY! Requires 3 ingredients and your microwave!

Hot Fun in the Summertime (Week #5)

I’ve seen some great recipes from my blogger friends in each week’s party!

There’s just a sample in the graphic above–check them all out on last week’s post!

Here’s a good one from me to start it off. Good summer dessert–sort of a re-work on strawberry shortcake, only it’s a dessert bar with a rich shortbread crust.

Hot Fun in the Summertime (Week #4)

Judith Hannemann — Sun, 08 Jun 2014 23:00:00 +0000

We’re already into week #4 of some terrific summer recipes!In addition to all these favorites from my friends in the food blogosphere, I’ll be devoting a good number of my summer posts to cooking outdoors on the grill.

Your grill is made for a lot more than just the usual burgers, steaks and hot dogs. You can do some pretty unusual things with a gas grill–stuff you’d never dream of so check back regularly for some installments. I’m in the mood for something smoked–and yes, you CAN use your gas grill as a smoker with no additional fancy equipment. You have all you need in your kitchen, but just pick up some wood chips in the flavor you like best!

So on with the party–I’m on deck with my classic pasta salad. You can’t beat this with anything you grill or cook. It’s an all-time favorite!

Hot Fun in the Summertime (Week #3)

Welcome June and another week of sizzling summer recipes!

What great recipes we’ve had in just the 2 weeks this party’s been on!

The pics in the graphic above are only a small sampling from last week’s party. Get week #2 recipes here!

Since the slow cooker doesn’t heat your kitchen and is a good choice to use for summer, here’s one of my recipes where I use it to BBQ. Method to make the baked steak fries is also in this post.

Hot Fun in the Summertime (Week #2)

Judith Hannemann — Sun, 25 May 2014 23:00:00 +0000

Week # 2 of great summer recipes!

The small pics in the graphic above are just a few goodies from last week’s roundup. Make sure to visit week #1 to see all the recipes!

And here’s a great one for the grill from me. Don’t let the hot peppers in the marinade put you off! You get a mild zing, but nothing you have to call the fire department on!!! Wonderful flavor. My friend Heather from Sugar Dish Me made this but with actual cherries instead of cherry tomatoes and it was GREAT!
