Dear Happy Camper,
The summer is here! Let’s put some shorts on and fire up the grill! Maybe even invite a few friends for a small outdoor gathering! How AMAZING is that!?
As we enjoy this Memorial day weekend, let us realize how lucky we are to live in a free country. And let us remember all the sacrifices that were made so we have the freedom to pursue meaning and happiness in our lifetimes. May this Memorial day bring us gratitude and togetherness!
For such occasions, we have just the bbq recipe:Â Portobello Mushroom Burgers!Â
