SUMMER RECIPES
Summer is the time of expansion, lush growth, lightness and increased outward activity. Energies are high, the days are long. It is time to play, spending time with friends and families. In summer we begin to reap the harvest of the seeds planted in spring. Plans and projects come into fruition. The fragrant smells of herbs and flowers fill the air. An abundance of fruit ripens on the trees. It is the time for light, watery, refreshing foods.
