    First Bites of Summer: Shine Supper Club

    Each month, the Shine Supper Club presents a theme for your cooking inspiration. June's theme: The First Bites of Summer. Join us: Tweet @yahooshine #shinesupperclub with a link to your dish (it could be on your blog, Instagram, Flickr, wherever!). One Supper Clubber will be featured on the homepage of Shine!



    WHAT: The First Bites of Summer

    WHY: Because it's not really summer until you've eaten it, and once the weather gets warm you can't wait until the sweet moment when you have. That creamy, cold, luscious, ripe, refreshing treat is never as good any other time of year as it is in a hammock, on the beach, or at the swimming pool. Summer has officially arrived.

    WHERE: Wherever you like to get creative on the web! Post to your Tumblr, a blog on Shine, to Pinterest, Instagram, the Supper Club Flickr group... Anywhere on the web that gives you a public link.

    HOW: Tweet your original Supper Club contribution link to @yahooshine (and @sarahmccoll if you want to say hey!) with the hashtag #shinesupperclub. Photos and words must be created by you--no sneaky stuff. Or feel free just to weigh-in in the comments.

    WHO: You! The Supper Club is open to any and all with a healthy appetite and a thirst for fun, an eye for good food and a way with words to tell the stories that go along with them.

    WHEN: All month long! June's for taking that First Bite. (Finally!)

I wasn't fussy about crusts. I just loved the sticky pairing of creamy peanut butter with syrupy golden sweetness drizzled from a honey bear in diagonals across the soft white bread. Nothing else--save for maybe apples and peanut butter in a pinch--could have made for as sweet an
