As I write this post the temperature in Manteno, Illinois at 5:30 pm is 102 degrees....WOW:)
Last Friday I made Dungeness Crab......it is my favorite food to eat. I have previously given the recipe... or this recipe...garlic butter and bake. Yum....doesn't get any better:)
Sunday Lauri and I packed up dinner and went to Mom's. We had Sangria (red and white), Gazpacho, Garlic Baked Shrimp, Watermelon, and Mashed Potatoes. Served the soup and drinks in mason jars. I used Mom's recipe for the Gazpacho, hope you like it. Lauri made a wonderful Peach Cake.....didn't get a picture.....it was so good:)

Everything sounds great Judy! Congrats on winning the Kindle:@)
I would love to sit down to that menu. Be careful in the heat. I hear there is relief on the way.
Crab is my favorite food! I've never gotten into the cold soup thing...this might be a good year to try it. I'm just about 3 hours south of you and of course have matching (horrible) heat here too.
Crab is probably my favourite sea food ... I love it so much, and especially much more than lobster.
Woo Hoo...you won a Kindle...now that's F.U.N. Congrats!!
Plenty hot around here, too.:(
Your food sounds amazing.
Hmmmm, looks & sounds so good! We've had triple digits for eons it seems...so tired of it. A nice cold glass of Pinot would be perfect alongside this too ~ :-)
I'm a new follower and look forward to getting to know you. I appreciate your stopping by my place.

Your gazpacho (and everything else) sounds delicious. I love the addition of the onions. Yum!
Luckily, relief from the heat is on the way! Oh my, that Dungeness crab looks delicious. The Gazpacho is a wonderful cool treat on a hot day. Your mothers recipe sounds great!
102 in Illinois. Time to break out the recipe for gazpacho, that's for sure. Stay cool.
