What time is it? Summertime! Enjoy days by the pool/lake/ocean, road trips, trips traveled to by plane, barbeques, picnics, all the things. Whatever you do, be sure to bring along some summer reads. What is a summer read? Find out in the July bonus episode.

Recipe: A southwestern inspired mac and cheese. You will need a box of mac and cheese (whatever brand is your favorite, I like Annie’s four-cheese penne), black beans, onion, bell peppers, jalapeno pepper, and salsa. While the pasta is cooking, chop up the onions and peppers. Then, as you’re mixing in the cheese powder and milk, you will also stir in the beans, chopped veggies, and a tablespoon or two of the salsa. So easy, so tasty, and very colorful too!
