14 Day Sun Pickles {Granny's Recipe}

14 Day Sun Pickles , homemade dill pickles tailored to suit your taste, just not the traditional canning method.  Simple pickling method that leaves you with a fantastic crunchy cucumber. Summer is here in East Texas, and cucumbers are beginning to make in the gardens. One of my favorite summer traditions at my house growing up was making 14 Day Sun Pickles with my Mother.

Spinach, Arugula and Apple Salad With Soy Sauce Toasted Pecans

With the summery weather here in Texas, I am increasing more salads in our menu.  Salads do not have to be so boring, especially with the availability of so many different salad greens in the markets.  One of my favorite combination of salad greens is spinach and arugula.  This Spinach Arugula Salad tossed together with thinly sliced apples and Soy Sauce Toasted Pecans explodes in your mouth with the saltiness of the pecans and sweetness of the apples.  My mouth is watering just sitting here typing the recipe.  Are you ready to enjoy this wonderful salad --or are you willing to take it to a main course, serving it with some wonderful grilled chicken?

Strawberry Limeade {Sonic Strawberry Limeade Copycat}

Sonic Strawberry Limeade,  made with freshly squeezed lime juice and sweetened strawberry syrup.  All enjoy a tangy, sweet combination drink at one of America's drive-in fast food restaurants. Strawberries are so plentiful right now, giving me all kinds of recipe ideas.  I had some strawberry juice leftover the other day from a recipe for Strawberry Sheet Cake Shortcake .
