250th Anniversary

We’re having a birthday party! It’s our country’s 250th Anniversary. Time for celebration with a grand picnic. Enjoy several of my favorite recipes for a summer picnic. I love the Cajun rub and apricot sauce on the ribs. And, I’m proud of my baked bean recipe — it is the best. In “Editor’s Choice”, my hot dog recipe has turned out to be a viewer favorite. I dressed the hot dogs up with all kinds of toppings making these an exceptionally tasty. Plus, Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches are the perfect dessert for anyone who likes brownies and ice cream and doesn’t want all the mess. In this frozen treat recipe, things are easy to eat. But don’t wait too long to eat — if dining outside — the ice cream tends to melt quickly!
