I seriously just can’t get over the fact that it’s May.

May.

This year has been such a roller coaster so far that I am hoping for some serious summer fun.

Which means I’m thinking about bucket list for summer.

Last year we put up our outdoor movie screen…just in time for it to turn cold. 🙂

Part of that was because of all the horrible wildfires last year and we did not even have visibility in our own yard.

I hope that won’t be the case this summer for everyone’s sake.

So I definitely want more outdoor movie time.

Especially now that we have our little pizza oven.

My husband and I still need to master the pizza making but we are willing to put in the work. 😀

We have to figure out an outdoor activity we can do. I mean not that I don’t love me some treadmill. 😛

But some change would do me good.

Someone suggested hiking which I was like oh fun until I read the statistics of people who have heart attacks while hiking.

And the percentage of them that die because they are in the middle of nowhere and I rethought that. 😀

If you are making a bucket list for your summer, these Cherry Limeade White Chocolate Chip Cookies might want to make the list.

Inspired by Sonic’s Cherry Limeade drink these cookies are a fun way to get a little summer in before summer actually shows up.

Unless you live in Phoenix where summer is already there. 😛

Hopefully you are all ready for May.

Last but not least…it’s a great time to order my cookbook. 😀
