It has been a lot few weeks here in D.C. After starting the summer off on a cool and rainy note, the traditional D.C. heat and humidity came back a few weeks ago in full force. I’m always looking for ways to beat the heat, whether it is with cool dress or summertime treats and these limeade popsicles. The perfect cooling dessert or snack, you will be making this easy recipe for the rest of summer!

Grilled Peaches with Vanilla Ice Cream
Ever since I shared this Peach Caprese Salad, I’ve been craving peaches. Summer is the season for them after all! A few weeks ago, I was dreaming of the Southern Peach Cake I shared with you last summer trying to think of a way to enjoy a peach dessert without all the calories. Enter these grilled peaches with vanilla ice and a delicious cinnamon sauce. The perfect summer dessert and an excuse to fire up your grill for something other than hamburgers!

Pecan Pie Cookies
When it comes to fall desserts, pecan pie takes the cake (and pie). Pecan pie is delicious anytime of the year, but there is something special about enjoying a slice around Thanksgiving and Christmas. In the spirit of the holidays, I wanted to come up with a way to enjoy this favorite pie in a different way. Enter the most delicious pecan pie cookies.
Baked Pumpkin Donuts
Happy Halloween! I thought these cute and festive baked pumpkin donuts would be a fun recipe to share today given the holiday. But these donuts are not exclusive to Halloween. Make them for the rest of fall and pair them with cider for a yummy fall treat!
Pumpkin Pie Smoothie
Now that it is October and pumpkin season is in full swing, I thought it was a great opportunity to incorporate another pumpkin recipe into the mix. After making these pumpkin waffles a few weeks ago, I’ve been on a real pumpkin kick. I don’t want to say pumpkin overload, but I feel like I’ve been consuming a lot of pumpkin lately. But what better time of the year for it! I’m also excited to share this Pumpkin Pie Smoothie in picture and video form!
Rosé Popsicles
The summer temperatures are heating up and I think it’s safe to say we all are searching for a cool and refreshing treat to beat the heat (see what I did there?!). Rosé is a summertime favorite and in the last few years, frosé (frozen rosé) has take the world by storm. I wanted to come up with a new and different way to enjoy this summer drink and then realized rosé popsicles would be the perfect warm weather treat.
American Flag Icebox Cake
Key Lime Chex Mix
Summer and key limes are the perfect warm weather combination. Key lime pie is one of my favorite desserts, especially on a warm day. It’s cool, light and refreshing making it the ideal summer dessert. Although, making a key lime pie every hot day is a little unrealistic — mainly because I would probably eat the entire thing! — but this key lime chex mix is a great way to taste this summer flavor with a lot less calories…and portion control!Read More
