some menu ideas for your summer dining pleasure

We are at my in-law's lake house in Northern Wisconsin, it's gorgeous and peaceful up here, as per.  Doug and I are working, so it's less sitting on the dock and more staring at the computer, but it sure is nice to  see this at the end of the day, 
 and to spend time with these lovely people
whilst enjoying this. 

Watermelon Vodka Cocktail

Liquify 2 cups watermelon chunks in a blender- makes one cup watermelon juice
Add in: 1/2 cup vodka, 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice, 1 Tbs maple syrup
