Let's Talk About 3 Ways To Make Peak Summertime Delicious And Beautiful!

Hi, Creative Friends,

Summer is such a wonderful time of year! The shimmery days, sweet bountiful produce, and moments of pure happiness make us feel alive. Breathing in the height of summer and making the most of this beautiful season can really get our creative ideas flowing.

This week, let’s chat about how to make the peak of summer delicious & beautiful:

  1. Garden Gone Wild: Are tomatoes and bunches of zucchini squash piling up from your garden? Here are two amazing recipes that create a fun summertime meal: Chunky Gazpacho Soup from Marin Magazine & Double Dark Chocolate Zucchini Muffins. Both recipes are as delicious and delightful as a cool breeze on a hot summer day!

  2. Beach Beautiful: Whether putting our feet up by the beach or just sitting in our backyard, cocktails make summer sing. Try one of the sunset-inspired beverages in this book Beach Cocktails From Coastal Living such as this Tropical Champagne Punch. Either drink is just the right combination of summertime fun & beautiful!

  3. Fruits Of Labor: The summer is filled with happy fruity treats including, Blackberries, Early Girl Tomatoes, and juicy Damson Plums. Long after summer fades, grab an art print from INPRNT as a reminder of summer’s delicious beautiful times.

Drop me a message and let me know what you are working on or how will you make the peak of your summer fun & beautiful.

3 Creative Ways To Make This Summer Fun And Fantastic!

Hi, Creative Friends,

It’s official, we are smack dab in the middle of summer! If you are a bit like me, finding the best part of summer is about loving the simple things, like a warm summer day at the local pool, taking an hour to learn something new, or eating something of the season like a juicy, fruit galette.

This week, let’s make Summer fun and fantastic, with these 3 creative ideas:

  1. Say Peaches!: Creating summer fun can be as simple as looking at the local market for ripe, sweet fruit such as perfectly plump peaches. Whip up a Fruit Galette with this NYT cooking recipe or scoop up “French Pastry Made Easy” by Molly J. Wilk and make your summer sweet and fantastic with a perfect summer dessert. Here is a secret baking tip. Add this Heilala Vanilla Bean Paste to the crust of your fruit galette and make this galette the best dish enjoyed all summer long.

  2. Pool Time = Fun Times: Keeping everyone happy, especially little humans, during the summer can be daunting. Luckily, a long warm day at the local pool can make everyone fantastically joyful and worn out. Throw on a swimsuit such as this one, grab a water bottle like this one and pack a cooler full of drinks & snacks, and watch the summer memories spill over into fall!

  3. Dive Into Learning: It’s always good to expand our minds and Skillshare offers so many great classes to fill a few hours of each day learning something new such as Still Lifes Are Cool! Contemporary And Traditional Art In Acryla Gouache by Dylan Mierzwinski. With a notebook such as this Strathmore Soft Cover Mixed Media Art Journal and a small set of Acryla Gouache, this class teaches the fundamentals of building and mixing colors. If painting up cherries sounds like too much pressure for summer, try my Creative Magic Everyday: How To Unlock Your Creative Magic Now! class, it helps develop the simple art of finding creative ideas.
