Since Memorial Day weekend is the official beginning of summer for those of us who live in the USA, my mind has turned to fantasizing about what a perfect summer afternoon would be. Of course, finding just one vision of perfection becomes immediately problematic as I sift through all the things on my summer to-do list.

Who’s ready for the long Memorial Day weekend? I know I am! If you’re planning a picnic this weekend, what could be better than a batch of classic chicken salad and some strawberry shortcake (gluten-free and vegan, no less!)? For something a little different, try Sara Kate’s real Greek salad. It looks so good. A batch of homemade ginger ale and a pitcher of bourbon-spiked lemonade would complete the spread. We have recipes for these — and more! — right here.
