Perfect for those warm summer months when you don’t want to get sweaty in the kitchen… Unless of course you’re doing a workout at the same time… hey, it happens sometimes.

Anyways! With Memorial Day coming up and it being the unofficial kickoff of Summer, I wanted to share some healthier no-bake recipes with you all. Because if it’s humid and effing hot outside, I think we all want to keep our time in the kitchen to a minimum.

So I hope everyone has a fun long weekend, and hopefully BBQing it up and bringing some no-bake dessert 😀

We are (finally) moving into our new place this weekend. I am definitely looking forward to being in one spot again, having my own kitchen, not living out of boxes,  and giving “FMK on wheels” a rest ? My summer months are already pretty booked with travel, so it would be nice to start getting my life together again.

Because we’ll be taking this weekend to get settled into our place, I may be a little MIA from this space next week. It wasn’t intentional but I’ve been slacking and haven’t been able to plan as much as I would have liked for the end of the month. So I guess I’ll see ya when I see ya. Who knows, maybe I will get back on track sooner than I thought ?

    It’s going to get up to 90 degrees again today in Philly, and is already 75 at 9am! ACK! These recipes couldn’t be more perfectly timed – my sweet tooth is a knockin’ but there is NO WAY I’m turning on my oven today/this weekend. Awesome roundup!

      So jealous of your beach! Although I guess I could go to Lake Michigan… hhmmmm. Probably just stick around unpacking and cooking out with fam though. 😀 Enjoy the beach! I’m hoping I’ll be kitchen-ready by Monday night 😉
