Menu Plan–July 1

How can it possibly already be July?  I have a month left of summer before transitioning back, at least mentally, to teaching!  Eek.  Must make the most of these upcoming weeks… a little bathroom & bedroom painting and some well-needed R&R.  This last week, we enjoyed the first fruits from our garden:

We also hosted Frog Prince’s boss for dinner, as he was in town for a conference – & this cake was dessert.  Yep. It was good!

We grilled a bunch of brats this week, so we enjoyed many meals of traditional summer eats:
