Back to School!

It's Back to School time!!  Are you ready to dust off those lunchboxes and fill them up with goodies?

  Sandwiches, soups, salads, veggies and dips, yogurt and fruit, maybe some homemade treats or a special drink?

If you're not busy packing lunches, maybe you'd like to end summer with a bang by making one last special summer supper.  Pack yourself, your family, or your friends a special picnic and head outdoors.  Soak up the sun!

However you celebrate Back To School is up to you!  Make and post your Back To School dish by Sunday, September 4th.  Don't forget to link your post of the week with Mr. Linky below, so we can all enjoy your Back To School recipe. Please remember to leave a comment after to be sure that we don't miss anyone.

Soups, Salads and Sammies!

What's better than a big comforting bowl of soup, a fresh, crispy salad, or a thick, hearty sandwich?

They are the simple pleasures of life and we are celebrating them here at IHCC.

This week we are all about Soups, Salads and Sammies with Jamie.

Make your favorite out of the three, or make it a combo plate. Make your dishes for lunch, dinner, or even a midnight snack. It's up to you. Just pick a Jamie Oliver recipe (or recipes) from one of his books or online and post it by Sunday, August 28th.

These are all Jamie Oliver dishes--mostly from his website and the work of David Loftus
