Our Edible ABC Summer...

...begins tomorrow! Today is the last day of school here, so tomorrow we begin eating our way through the alphabet. 

My children and I have agreed upon a few guidelines for this foodie summer. For every letter, we have to:
* Choose at least one food that we haven't tried before
* Choose a recipe to try 
* Choose one food that we know we enjoy

And for every letter, we can do one of the following:
* Choose a sweet treat
* Choose a restaurant or special restaurant item

Because we're out of school tomorrow and schools around Portland do not start until the day after Labor Day, this is likely the longest summer my children will ever experience during their childhood years. That means we have over three full months of summer break! We'll be skipping weekends and just eating as usual those days. We will spend three days on each letter of the alphabet with the exception of Q, U, and V (which will each get two days) and X, Y, and Z (which will get one day each). 

I'll do my best to post at the end of each letter's edible adventures!
