Lemonade is already the perfect drink for summer: it's tangy, sweet and quenches your thirst (for a little bit, until the sweetness has you pouring another glass). To balance out the acidity of lemonade and to make yourself feel both healthier and classier, you can add some of these fruits to your glass: Strawberries add a bit of sweetness to lemonade.
Now that Crêpe Bistro is nothing more than Norris lore, the question of strawberries and Nutella versus bananas and Nutella might seem beside the point.

Grilled Figs with Creme Fraiche and Chestnut Honey. What??!! Two desserts in a row, what are Ken and Jody coming to? Nothing spectacular--the blog reflects what we eat, and during August we eat a lot from the grill, including dessert. I tumbled on to grilling figs one hot summer night when we were already...
Anything home-made is my favourite snack while I'm knitting and I recently learned how to make these tasty honey-flavoured granola bars. They're very easy to make and absolutely delicious, so I'd like to share one of my original and yummy granola bar recipes!

Strawberry Kiwi Fruit Popsicles: Super easy, delicious, and healthy! Wanna know what is on my mind? I'll tell you anyways. It's my hair. Like, why can't I have the beautiful to-the-side hair-braid, and for said braid to lay flat on my chest, all the way down past my ribs.
