I’m back from vacation and playing some serious catchup! It is the busy season at my job plus I have something special in the works. I’m super excited but exhausted, which is funny since I just spent a week at the beach. I am so happy that summer weather has finally hit! It means I’ll be firing up my grill and getting ready for backyard barbecues. I love having friends over for a potluck party with all the fixings.
One of my favorite things to make is this BLT Coleslaw! It combines salty bacon, sweet cherry tomatoes and classic coleslaw for a fun twist on the traditional bbq side dish. The best part is there isn’t any weird ingredients in this BLT coleslaw. It travels well and makes the perfect addition to any dinner.
Who here loves the beach? Even though I just left the beach Saturday, I already miss it. There is something in my soul that can only be filled by the sound of waves and soft sand between my toes! Confession: I am scared of the ocean. Well not quite so much to ocean but the fear of the unknown. If I can’t see my toes, I get super scared of what might be lurking in the water. Thankfully the water was clear most days except when the storms rolled in. I am already planning my next beach vacation… in my mind. What are your favorite beach?

This sounds amazing! I always avoid coleslaw at picnics and BBQs because I can’t stand mayo. I am sure I would love this version!
Santa Barbara is maybe not my ultimate favorite beach but it’s relaxed and WARM… which is more than I can say for Norcal beaches! >_<
I love Santa Barbara. It is so pretty! I somehow have never made it up to Norcal!
BLT coleslaw? What a great idea! I hope someone invites me to a picnic soon so I can bring this. 😉
