Yummmmm, it's a delicious peach daiquiri! One hundred degree weather deserves one hundred percent fun summer drinks! I made this with fresh peaches, peach nectar, rum, diet 7-up & ginger ale, and a couple of leaves of mint. I threw everything but the rum into the blender and then threw it into the ice cream maker for 25 minutes. I was rewarded with a perfect slush drink! All I had to do was pour it for the kids and add rum for the adults! Don't forget the umbrellas. Nothing makes a fun summer drink complete like an umbrella!
The hot summer weather is bringing out the cook in me. After I finished making my drink I decided a blueberry pie was next in line. I had my heart set on this all week and boy did it live up to my dreams. I used a recipe from my Cook's Illustrated magazine. The crust is a huge pain in the butt but it does turn out perfect every time. The filling needs a little extra TLC also but it's well worth the effort.
Lastly, I made this yummy veggie stir fry to cleanse our system from a week of sausage and hamburgers. It featured fresh bok choy, snap peas, onions (all from the garden), and broccoli. I grilled it to add a bit more flavor and then topped it off with a sauce. Over rice, it was just what the doctor ordered!
