Week #10: Peaches, Cherries and Blackberries

Summer is officially upon us, the kids are done school and the sun is shining.  Calgarians tend to make the most of summer, as the memory of winter is far too recent and the threat of cooler weather is always present.  My family is no exception and we are already fully enjoying all that summer brings. 

We just returned from an amazing camping trip to "Writing on Stone Provincial Park".  If you have never been I would highly recommend it.  The Hoodoos are breathtakingly beautiful and a lot of fun to explore.  The river is shallow and slow with a beautiful sandy beach.  The history and the petroglyphs are fascinating.  I can't imagine a more perfect camping destination.

We recently purchased a tent-trailer and I have admittedly gone a little crazy planning the summer with trips.   Every weekend is booked.  Between the weekends away, and the weeks home unpacking, washing, and re-packing, I fear the recipe challenge may suffer a wee bit.  I promise not to abandon it, but it may take a little longer to create, cook, and blog.  So please excuse my lazy summer attitude, but it is my duty as a Calgarian to indulge.

I should be able to come up with some summery creations with this weeks ingredients.

Husband: Peaches
Daughter: Blackberries
Son: Cherries

  1. Looking forward to seeing what you make! Enjoy your trailer - my hubby and I almost bought one. If there was EVER a challenge - it's cooking a food-flip in them!
