I know, I know, many of us across the country are still social distancing, and not planning any get togethers for a while. However, I am the type that can plan a cookout when it is just the 4 of us; and we have been seeing grandparents again, after 8 weeks. Many don't feel comfortable visiting relatives yet, and I respect that. I think we all have to do what we are most comfortable with at this point. Things are starting to open back up, and with as much caution as possible, we can start to live a little again.
With Memorial Day just around the corner, it's time to start thinking about our first backyard barbecue of the summer! Even if it's just your family, with no extra guests, you can still make it as delicious as always and ring in the season on a yummy note!
I love a great dip! I will eat it with veggies, crackers, chips..heck, just pass a spoon! Seriously, I am a dip connoisseur from way back, and at any party, you will find me filling my plate multiple times. Add in the fact that I am a dill fanatic, and this is a dream come true!
I've been making this for years, most of the time on a whim because I always have the ingredients on hand! You can easily double or even triple it for a big crowd, but I enjoy the fact I can make a small batch when I'm craving it!
The weather might not feel like summer is on it's way, but I have faith. I am counting the minutes until these chilly temps are gone, the warm sun shines and the thermometer hits 80.
Summer cookout season is one of my favorite things in the world. Grilling, eating on the deck and enjoying great company, big or small is truly one of life's simple pleasures.
