Good morning everyone! Well, today is Memorial Day which is the unofficial start to the summertime season. I hope everyone is having a great 3-day weekend! We have been super busy this weekend as we celebrated Gia’s 5th birthday and we are trying to get everything done before we leave for vacation. Sigh, lots to do!
Today’s Topic: During the summer months many of us enjoy backyard barbecues or go on picnics. I would like to know what some of your favorite foods are that you enjoy during this time of the year?
For me: I love backyard barbecues and I am all over a good grilled steak…grilled to perfection of course! I also love kabobs with meat & veggies, potato salad, macaroni salad, cole slaw, pickled eggs and all of that jazz! I love this time of the year because we make some of my favorite foods in mass volume. How about you?

My favorites are grilled steak, cole slaw, grilled veggies, tomato salad and watermelon.
I hope that you were able to have at least a little bit of a long weekend and that everyone had fun! You named just about all of the summer foods that I enjoy as well. But I also love any of the fresh veggies that are at the local farmers markets during the summer. I could eat green beans 3 times a day!
Happy Memorial Day!! My favorites are BBQ chicken and grilled steak, potato salad, cole slaw, grilled veggies, baked potato with sour cream, caesar salad and watermelon.
Hope you are having a great Memorial Day! Love the summer cook outs and all that food! We always make potato salad, baked beans, devilled eggs and then grill some steaks! Later in the summer we also grill fresh corn we can buy by the bushel at the farmer’s market.
Congratulations to the 2 winners.
Happy Memorial Day to all the Classy Chics! Enjoy your day. My favorite foods for today and picnics are grilled steak, potato salad, cole slaw, other fresh salads, grilled corn and fruit pies.
I’m getting hungry reading this post! My fav is anything grilled – I try to keep it healthy and also have grilled veggies. I like to make pizza on the grill, too, and top it with cheese & veggies!
