I asked my grandchildren what they considered the taste of summer. I thought they might say chips from a roadside chip truck but their answer was a resounding ICE CREAM! So we ventured downtown to the ice cream shop where they serve Kawartha Ice Cream, the best tasting ice cream in Ontario, in my humble opinion.
The flavours in the photo are, a very obvious Blue Bubblegum, and Moose Tracks which had swirls of chocolate, peanut butter and tiny peanut butter cups. It was all delicious.

The first thing that comes to mind when I think of a taste of summer is vegetables fresh from the garden. In some ways I think I was spoiled as a kid. Although we lived on the edge of town we had a huge vegetable garden, and besides making jams and jellies, my mother also made relishes, pickles, and chutneys. I used to love putting the tomatoes, onions, and peppers through the meat grinder.
I’ve had a couple of failed attempts at vegetable gardens in the past, but my next door neighbour has great success and loves to share her bounty. I was going to post a picture of the cherry tomatoes that my husband and granddaughter planted (they’re covered with tomatoes) but my neighbour sent her granddaughter over with a much larger selection.
The only thing better than fresh produce is a neighbour who likes to share. :-)
