Hi Friends! We are enjoying especially good weather here in Illinois and we hope you are as well. We've been cleaning up the yard, planting flowers and getting ready for some summertime fun. If you are planning to host some outdoor get togethers, you might like to visit our newest web page called Yard Parties. In addition to the usual invitation and decoration ideas, you will find a few suggestions for yard games including "Timber Time" as well as our list of 10 party tools that we can't do without, including our drink dispensers and copper torches. Of course you'll also find some of our favorite yard party recipes too. Enjoy!

Until Next Time,
