I'm still not putting up any new "summer" recipes yet because we're still waiting for summer weather to arrive. Sorry to say, but by the end of May, we'd only had six hours of temperatures over 70 degree this year. Yes, I said hours . Our average temperature in May was 52.6 degrees. I mean, it's almost laughable. This is Seattle, after all. I'm not complaining, just stating the facts. It all means that we are still eating soups and comfort foods like this Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie. And I love my comfort foods and soups that rain brings along with it. There is a reason why I've moved away from Seattle four times in my life and then moved back four different times. Do I really love the rain that much or is it really about the comforting food we get to eat when it rains. Actually, I think it's both. I call our weather "natural air-conditioning". We have managed to squeeze in barbecues here and there, like for Memori...
