One of my favorite drinks is a sherbet float. What is a sherbet float? Juice, lemon-lime soda, and two scoops of sherbet. So flavorful and refreshing! My favorite is raspberry, but my kids like lemon and orange. These are fun for kids to customize and would be great to serve at a party! We picked up enough supplies to make them while we watch the Kids' Choice Awards this weekend! Start with 1 scoop of sherbet. This will also determine the color your float will end up being.

DIY Grapevine Wreath
We have 4 grape vines in our backyard. They provide such beautiful, green, foliage during the summer and they grow so quickly! It doesn't seem to matter how many shoots we trim off, those vines spread quickly. This is the first year that we really had to trim back after the season was over. I decided to do something with some of the trimmings instead of putting them all in the green waste. Do you have grapes in your yard? Have you ever made anything with the vines? Today I am going to show ... Read More about DIY Grapevine Wreath

Pretzel Crusted Tilapia with Seafood Sauce & Baked Fries
I really love the mild flavor of white fish like halibut and tilapia. When we lived in Alaska I cooked with it regularly and would use fish instead of chicken in many of my recipes. Fish tacos, pesto halibut, etc. Tilapia is less expensive and oftentimes easier to find now that we are living back in the lower 48. We enjoy grilling it and serving it in a variety of baked dishes too. This pretzel crusted tilapia from Sam's Club goes great with homemade fries and steamed asparagus. The best part? ...
