Father’s Day Cookout Ideas!

With the forecast looking promising for this Father’s Day Weekend
celebrations, we thought we would share some ideas for great outdoor
cookout meals and beverages! Whatever your plans are for this weekend,
we have the food to make it perfect!

If you are thinking of staying home and grilling out, we suggest:

Summer Salad of Native Lettuce
with English Cucumber, Sweet Red Onions, Tiny Tomatoes and a Lemon
Balsamic Vinaigrette

Grilled & Sliced Sirloin of Beef
Marinated with Ginger, Soy & Garlic served with Peach Barbeque Sauce

Citrus Crusted Halibut
with Golden Pineapple & Poblano Salsa

Yukon Gold Potato Salad
Potatoes, Scallions & Sweet Corn in a BBQ Mayonnaise Dressing

Grilled Summer Vegetables
with Garlic, Rosemary & Extra Virgin Olive Oil

If you will be away from the house (Boat, Beach or the Hyannis Car
Show) we suggest:

Heading over to a Casual Gourmet Express to pick up some take-out food!

No matter where you celebrate, these treats are great!

Summer Sangria

Just use your favorite white wine and add fresh fruits to bring
out the best flavor.

Sarah Kate & Josh at Various Locations

What, pray tell, do we mean when we say Sarah Kate and Josh’s wedding was “at various locations”? Well, there was simply too much awesomeness to contain their wedding celebration to one venue. The weekend-long festivities, all of which were brilliantly orchestrated by Allison Wildes of Elegant Engagements, seemed to have everything. The one thing […]

Sarah & Brian at Bourne Farm

If the goal of one’s wedding is to spend a day, or a weekend, celebrating love and savoring laughter with those you are closest to (well, yeah; of course it is!), Sarah and Brian’s June wedding at Bourne Farm was a resounding success of epic proportions!
