Warm nights, close friends, good food, cold drinks, and a
crackling fire by the sea. Summer is upon us. Let’s gather together and
have a great American picnic.
Song: “Up In Smoke” by Johnny Gates and The Invite
We’d like to thank Johnny Gates and The Invite for kicking off our
summer soundtrack with “Up In Smoke,” an upbeat anthem inspired by the
sights and sounds found in our own backyard.
Originally from New England, the band has
since taken their talents to Nashville, TN to work on their Warner
Brothers record debut.

Once
the summer heat starts to set in, there’s nothing I find more
refreshing than a cool glass of lemonade. Something about that perfect
mix of sour and sweet never gets old! This recipe
from Epicurious is a classic take on the summertime favorite and is
incredibly simple to make. I was thrilled to have an opportunity to use
this beautiful glass drink dispenser
from Pottery Barn, so I tripled the recipe to fill the dispenser (holds
10 quarts).

There's no feeling like leaf peeping in a big, cozy sweater on a brisk New England Fall day. Load up the family wagon, stop for some apple cider donuts, and have yourself an Autumn adventure to remember.
