Hello Friends,

Sending out a special thank you to all of you who have served our country - our family is grateful for your service.

Our youngest daughter is playing in a volleyball tournament this weekend, our oldest is recuperating after having her wisdom teeth pulled, and I am recovering too. I shared about my recent surgery in posts on Instagram and on Facebook, if you weren't aware. I'm healing, getting stronger every day, but still have a long way to go.

In this newsletter I'm sharing a few favorite recipes for your Memorial Day weekend + all your summer celebrating. From summertime salads and entrees to tasty desserts and drinks, there's a little something for everyone!

Thank you for following along with me at afarmgirlsdabbles.com - Have an awesome weekend!
