Just because you’re a grown up doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy summer like kids do. Here are a few kid-friendly recipes you can make as a meal for the entire family.

Don’t get me wrong, I like going out for dinner just as much as the next girl. But when it comes to Valentine’s Day, heading out to a busy restaurant isn’t my idea of a good time. Not only are they usually expensive, the atmosphere can be a little stressful with the crowds.   This Valentine’s Day why not do something a little different – stay in, prepare a good meal, and enjoy the peace and quiet. And guys, if you’re doing the cooking, you’ll score major points with your Valentine this year.

There’s a bumper crop of tomatoes out there right now, and they’re just begging to be chopped up into salsa.
