ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: Candy peaches, tart and tangy blackberries, contemporary mint, basil, and parsley are tossed along with a tangy-sweet French dressing over creamy burrata to create the summer season salad that I can’t cease consuming.
Simply in case you haven’t seen, I’ve change into a wee bit obsessive about my air fryer over the previous couple of years, and because it seems, the air fryer creates tacky French bread pizzas with a chewy, crispy crust. It’s selfmade pizza that’s quick sufficient for a lunch or dinner.
This creamy corn with jalapeno has change into certainly one of my favourite corn aspect dishes. The candy pop of contemporary corn is tucked in a wealthy, creamy cheese sauce with jalapenos and pairs superbly with absolutely anything, from these grilled steak kabobs to roasted rooster to juicy, crisp kielbasa bites and a lot extra.
After I completed making the sixth or eighth or possibly it was the tenth batch of peach jam, I made a decision to make use of the final of my peaches to make a easy peach syrup.

And upon getting a batch of peach syrup available, you’re going to wish to drizzle it into every kind of deliciousness.
You’ll wish to save sufficient of the syrup to combine up a pitcher of this peach iced tea too. There’s one thing additional particular a few glass of iced tea when it’s heat outdoors. I’ll fortunately drink tea year-round, however within the summertime, a chilly glass in my hand encourages me to move for the entrance porch and benefit from the second.
To wrap up this yr’s peach enjoyable, I made this peach sorbet. It’s vibrant, flavorful, and bursting with juicy sweetness. Made with simply peaches, lemon juice, sugar, and a pinch of salt, peach sorbet is proof that the only recipes are sometimes the perfect.
What I’m CRAVING: I simply made this Asian salmon salad final week (for the third? 4th? time up to now couple of months) and now I’m craving it another time. It’s simply so dang good.

My FAVORITE THINGS this week are my wi-fi earbuds. I’ve shared my love for these very cheap earbuds earlier than. (The model new model is at present on sale for $27 – I anticipated complete rubbish the primary time I purchased a pair, and so they wound up being the perfect discover ever. I’ve had mine for years now.) I simply purchased a brand new pair as a result of mine have been lastly carrying out. The brand new ones are presupposed to be waterproof (although I’m unlikely to ever check that function on function), and the sound is even higher than the unique.
