Welcome July. I don’t know about you, but summer is my favorite season. Fittingly, our Summer Issue features some of my favorite things, too. From cute pets and grilling recipes to great Berks spots to visit for some diverse food flavors, there’s a lot to love this month.
Flip to page 45 for the big reveal of our 2022 Pet Photo Contest winners. Suffice it to say, the dogs had their day. Did your favorite take a top spot? If not, don’t forget to vote daily next spring. And if you think your pet could have claimed the title, it’s never too early to start snapping those photos.
Want to buy the pet you love something extra-special? He or she is likely one of your best friends, after all. Treat them to one of the products featured in our Pet Gift Guide beginning on page 18.
Whether you’re a grilling novice or seasoned expert, the time to try a new, delicious recipe is always now. We think kabobs are a great option, and the building possibilities are nearly endless. Turn to page 23 for some lunch, dinner, dessert and appetizer options.
When you’ve had a long day and you don’t feel like heating up the house, or the grill, visiting a local restaurant is a great option. We’ve found three amazing eateries with diverse food menus we think you’ll enjoy. Read more about them on page 62.
Here’s to a fun – and delicious – summer!
