The Organized Life, August Paint Bucket
Tomorrow is August 1, which means Summer is rapidly slipping away
…But!
As much as we all love thinking about Fall,
cooler temps and comfort food,
I still want to savor the last days Summer
I was having trouble picking a theme/flavor of the month
because this list is such a hodge podge of recipes…
Lots of Americanized Mexican dishes,
an Italian appetizer and an Asian Main Dish…
Since August is known as being “the Dog Days of Summer,”
the theme for this August is Mixed Breed 🐶
You can see photos of all the listed recipes in the August section

So many delicious dishes and I haven’t had breakfast. Butter pecan ice cream pie would be a hit with my hubby! Happy Sunday, Jenna!
Thank you Pam, the ice cream for the pie is an easy no churn recipe so it sounds really easy to make too!
Great theme and cheers to the reminder to savor the summer while we have it
☀️😊
Thank you, school starts here in just 10 days, that makes it seem like summer is over for sure
Yikes – ten days? Well let’s enjoy what is left
Pineapple pulled pork tacos sound amazing! Enjoy your time at the beach:@)
Thanks Lynn, I can’t wait to make those!
Some lovely recipes! Really like the idea of the zucchini strata.
Thank you Dorothy, it’s one of my favorites 🙂
July just washed right by (we had double the average rainfall we normally get). ALl of your recipes looked so good, and I know I pinned a few.
Thank you Rita, it has been a rainy summer here too ☔️
Oh a fabulous month of some scrumptious recipes!
The ice cream may be made very soon!
Happy Sunday to you!
Thank you Nancy, have a great week!
What an incredible resource for recipes. Thank you.
You’re so welcome Jessica!
I can’t believe that seven months has flown by this year already. Jenna, all your food and sweets surely make me drool. I want to make every one of them!!! I hope that you have a great week and wonderful August. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
I agree, this summer has flown by! Thanks Cindy, have a great week!
Oh my, all of these dishes look so yummy! I can’t wait to see what you cook up in August. I can’t believe how quickly summer is going by. I’m definitely going to savor these last days of summer. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead, Jenna!
Hi Shannon, yes I hope summer will slow down a little in August…I hope all is well with you!
All of these are such great summer treats. I”m glad to see these because, as much as I love fall and comfort foods, I am not ready for fall. This summer has gone by so quickly.
It sure has Linda…I hate to see summer go, but cooler temps do sound good 🙂
I have been going through my cookbooks and planning Fall cooking to post. It is so hard to pick a theme. So many wonderful things to make. I love your table settings.
Thanks so much! Fall cooking is always a joy~
You always find the best things! It’s a great season for cooking — and enjoying it all! Love the painting, too!
Thanks so much Jeanie, school starts next week, so cooking will be hectic and challenging with all the boys after school activities…
