I love a good summer cocktail. Something refreshing, not to sweet, and full of ice on a hot summer day. Last year, while on a trip through the Mediterranean, I was introduced to my current summer favorite, The Hugo Spritz (find our recipe here). I’m still searching for my Summer 2019 favorite. Read on for 10 Summer Cocktail Recipes.

Books, Books, Books: How I Organize My Reading Life
If there’s one thing here at With Two Spoons that we love more than food, it’s books.
Fiction, non-fiction, cookbooks. Hardcover, paperback, e-reader.
We love them all. If you follow along with us on social media, you know that we are posting what we’re reading this year using the hashtag #withtwospoonsreads. It’s been a really fun way for us to share what we’re reading and loving and to connect with other book loving folks out there (and get some great book recommendations, too!). With how much we’ve been enjoying that little side project, I thought it might be fun to delve a little deeper into what our reading lives look like here on the blog. So, if books are your thing and you want to learn more about what’s on our TBR (that’s To Be Read list!), how we track our reading, different reading challenge options we’ve found, and the fun that is #bookstagram, keep reading!

Fitness as A Food Blogger
Are you a fan of New Year’s Resolutions? I definitely used to be. I would carefully craft long lists of all the new things I was going to do/see/be/improve in the coming year. I would excitedly make plans and then – inevitably – about two weeks later, life would get in the way and all of those things would fall by the wayside. Over the past few years, I’ve realized that as much as I love the idea of resolutions, they really weren’t working for me. So I gave them up. And you know what? It’s been great. Instead of resolutions, I have used the start of the New Year as a simple opportunity to reflect on things that have worked for me in past year as well as those things that didn’t. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about fitness and keeping strong and healthy in 2019. With that in mind, our Good Food Reads this week is some thoughts on fitness as a food blogger!

GFR: A Cozy Friday Five
Hey Friends! It seems overnight, the cold arrived in Minnesota. I celebrated my birthday this past weekend with a string of gorgeous (and hot!) 90 degree days. It felt like summer’s last big hurrah and we soaked it up. Monday afternoon, the storms rolled in and so did the cool weather. While I’ve been looking forward to some crisper fall evenings, I can’t say I’m loving this chilly, damp, rainy business. Since I’m also trying to cultivate a daily gratitude practice, I figured I would make the focus for this week’s Friday Five all about my favorite cozy things.

Good Food Reads: Back to School Friday Five!
Is everyone surviving the craziness of back to school and the end of summer?

Good Food Reads: Links I Love
Things are going to be a little different over here for this week’s Good Food Reads. While I’ve still got some great recipe links for you, we thought it might be fun to share a few other things we are loving and so I’ve collected some of my current favorite foodie, lifestyle, and even (gasp!) fashion loves into one, fun spot. This weeks Good Food Reads is all about Links I Love.
