June always feels like an invitation to exhale. The days stretch out, the mornings feel softer, and everything outside is humming with life. It’s the time of year that gently reminds us to slow down, breathe deeper, and say yes to what fills us up.

Think: open windows, barefoot mornings, and lazy strolls through the farmers market—snacking on juicy strawberries before you’ve even made it to the car—no judgment. It’s not about doing more; it’s about living in rhythm with the season.

And speaking of fresh, joyful moments... this month’s recipes are the perfect way to lean into summer seasonality and simplicity.

Here’s to slowing down, savoring what’s in season, and letting June unfold in its own sweet time.

Cheers! 🥂

Strawberry Shortcake

Perfect for summer gatherings or a special treat, it's a versatile recipe that's also kid-friendly, with opportunities for little helpers to assist in measuring, mixing, and assembling.

Product I'm Loving

Gourmend Bone Broths

Delicious First, Gentle Always

I discovered Gourmend last year and have fallen in love with their bone broths. They are delicious! Not only does Gourmend offer bone broths, but they also offer other cooking essentials that replace symptom-causing ingredients with low FODMAP alternatives. If you have digestive sensitivity I highly recommend giving this brand a try!
