So I also bought asparagus and will pick some poke greens. The corn on the cob sounds good but I didn't see any. And the popsicles are a great idea for the kids running around in the sun, thanks PP.


I agree with you, OP. Grass-fed burgers and your other plans sound yum. Hope it went well!

Where are you? The Safeway at Lee/Harrison had plenty of corn on the cob. You could do something with strawberries and blueberries too, which are also on sale. (and with whipped cream, you'd have a patriotic red/white/blue dessert option.)

we are doing falafel, kefta, chicken and veggie kebabs, coleslaw, garden pasta salad-tons of veggies, olive oil and corkscrew pasta, fatoush salad, tabboleh, hummus, pita chips and bread, corn on the cob, honey cookies, watermelon, popsicles, and the kids and I are making a cake that it served out of a sand bucket-looks like a bucket of sand decorated with gummi sea candy and whatever else the guests bring. We will have burgers and hot dogs too.

Hoping to get some inspiration for our party Monday. We are having grass-fed beef burgers and beer. That's about as far as I've come with planning and I need to go to the Farmer's Market today. help!
