I’m back! Well, sort of. I’m kind of enjoying the lazy, crazy days of summer that leave us looking happily spent at the end of the day. We’ve been doing lots of swimming, fort building, game playing, and reading. Dinners with friends, art classes, playdates and simple meals.
I had my friend Amy over one day, and as our kids ran screaming around the house, we shared good conversation over a simple lunch of salami, cheese, and this avocado and grapefruit salad. We couldn’t help but go back for seconds.
School starts July 31st, which means summer is flying by way too quickly.
I’m back, but not quite all the way. There are still 30 lazy crazy days of summer left to enjoy.

Looks so yummy! Definitely going to try adding grapefruit slices to our next salad. Thanks for the inspiration.
We’ve been doing a lot of grilling to avoid turning on our oven – lamb burgers, salmon, veggies, etc.
