A drink recipe to help you beat the heat
Listening to the news this morning made me realize that summer is finally here! It looks like there is a heat wave working its way across the country, 90 degrees in Maine? Yes, please! When the temperature rises and the humidity sets in, sometimes all you want is a refreshing drink to cool you down. Today is the perfect day for a lemonade, specifically a Raspberry Lemonade! Drinks, such as this, are so easy to make from scratch, and so much more refreshing then what you can purchase pre-made at the store. Add a little mint for an extra touch! Do you have a favorite drink you go to when the weather gets hot?

Contgratulations Suburban Prep! We will contact you for your mailing information and

************
There seems to be a food holiday for just about every day of the year. Today, however, is a great one to celebrate, it's National Doughnut Day! This day falls on the first Friday of every June and has been celebrated since 1938 during the Great Depression when they were sold to raise money for the Salvation Army. Today, doughnut shops across the country give out free doughnuts and continue the tradition.
Don't have a doughnut shop near you? Many people insist that you can only get doughnuts from a doughnut shop, however they are quite easy to make in your own home and much healthier! Today, we want to share one of our increasingly popular baking mixes for you to try out; our Doughnut Mixes. These doughnut mixes are all natural and are baked instead of fried. You can enjoy them for breakfast or even better, with a little scoop of ice cream for dessert. Enjoy!
