May is the gateway to summer. It is the month that can start off raining, but always seems to end with sunshine. The days are continuing to get warmer and longer, and we are enjoying a wider selection of fresh produce. May is also National Barbeque Month, so if you have not already been outside grilling, there is no excuse to delay any longer.

Flowers are blooming, birds are singing. And we are grilling stuff outdoors!
