Spring and summer are a great time to entertain. Lots of good opportunities. Wonderful fresh foods to eat. And if the weather is good, you can entertain outside so you don't have to celan your house (except for access to a bathroom).

Take some time this weekend to think about your spring and summer entertaining plans. Here are som ideas to get you started:

•Mother's and/or Father's Day.

•Memorial Day and Fourth of July.

•Graduation parties.

•Bridal showers.

•A cookout can be a simple and elegant meal. You can grill meat, fish, veggies, fruit. Even pizza.

•Outdoor happy hour. All you need is a tub of ice and a blender. Especially good on Fridays.

How will you entertain this season?
