I hope this finds you sipping sweet tea in the shade somewhere that makes you feel like a kid again. Isn’t that what summer is all about? Feeling unencumbered and inspired? I thought I’d keep it simple this month and share this recipe from a cookbook I helped edit in the 1990’s when we lived in Hong Kong. It’s a winner for BBQs and potlucks.

Have fun and enjoy this issue with ideas for nearby summer outings and maybe even a little inspiration!

Love,
