Below find a selection of recipes I picked to be a sure hit at any gathering this summer. Happy 4th of July!

As I compiled the recipe index last week for the latest issue and realized that there are almost 80 recipes in it, I thought, "What a bargain!" I have plenty of cookbooks that contain about that many recipes, and they cost a LOT more that a single copy of my magazine. If you're not a subscriber you're really missing out on a lot of great food. A trial subscription only costs $10; for that you'll get around 200 recipes between now and the end of the year. You can't beat that for a bargain- Sign up today and you'll get the issue pictured at right next week. (Subscriber copies will start arriving next week also.)

Plus, you'll be doing your part to help support this small business. Click here for a 1-, 2-, or 3-year subscription or click here for the $10 trial offer. You won't regret it, and I'll appreciate the business.

Below find a selection of recipes I picked to be a sure hit at any gathering this summer. Enjoy this week's recipes, share them with family and friends, and, as always, let me know what's on your mind. Have a great weekend.

Best regards,

Susan
