this is one of the more unique twists on a blt i've seen. the boy and i make blts a few times a month. could be a cool way to mix it up. plus, i always always have time for a sweet/salty combo.

via honey & jam
for all you freaks peeps out there who like hot fruit desserts, this crumble from honey & jam looks pretty easy.

via endless simmer

ahhhhh


these popsicles have it all: 

whiskey
fresh cherries
green apples (!)

plus, there's a recipe for homemade sweet + sour mix!
