It’s not jacket weather anymore.
Quick! Can anyone name that movie quote??
No, it’s definitely not jacket weather anymore; at least not here in Texas. I brought out the popsicle maker last week and we’ve been having lots of fun creating different flavors, such as mint-chocolate-chip and blueberries-n-cream popsicles. So if you happen to see an overwhelming number of popsicle recipes on my blog this summer, please accept my apologies in advance.
In the meantime, here are 10 healthy recipes perfect for “non-jacket” weather. (By the way, the quote is from The Wedding Singer. It’s one of my all-time favorite movies!)
Question of the Day:
Does it feel like summer yet where you are?
I know summer doesn’t technically start until June 20th. But when the temperatures are already in the 90s, and kids are getting out of school, it’s pretty easy to say summer has arrived. I hung my jacket up long ago.

























It felt like summer for a week then we got a storm with golf ball size hail and wind gusts up to 70 mpg. Now it’s in the low 50’s and feels like fall! I just wanna use my new swimsuit and take my baby to the pool for the first time, dang it!
oh i want that shamrock shake! I also have been going popsicle crazy
Wedding Singer! Hehe such a good movie. Great recipes as always, Katie – thank you!
It felt like summer last weekend in Northern Illinois but now it is in the 60s and my heater has kicked on. Thank you for the summer treat ideas!
I just returned to the UK from a trip to Canada where it was DEFINITELY summer weather. Unfortunately here- not as much. But it is Jubilee craziness this weekend, so the summer spirit will definitely be in the air!
Those Nutella Fudge Pops look fudgy and delicious!!
The Nutella pops are perfect for summer!
Yum, all look great!
Yes, is is for sure summer here in LA. (I mean it always is perfect weather,) 😉 but what is now available at the Farmers Market is what is sayin summer to me. 🙂
I live in Seattle and our jackets are still on our backs! I’m from Boise, Idaho which gets really hot so I’m missing the sun and heat. And my college is on the trimester system so I’m still in school. Let’s just say I’m a little jealous of you right now, Katie. 🙂
over here in Australia its the second day of winter… 🙁
as nice as all these summery foods of yours look I will baking some of your cookies today instead!
Hi Katie!
I just wanted to thank you for all your awesome recipes. I’m a new Mama and just stopped eating dairy because my baby boy has a milk protein allergy. Your recipes have saved me!
School’s out today = it totally feels like summer!
This is why I love the round-ups – I thought I had read every inch of your sight, but I’m glad to see that I was wrong! 🙂
It’s sweatshirt and blanket weather here today. Tea, anyone?
yayy, getin my popsicle maker this wknd cant wait! btww i just bought a waffle iron, do u no if any of your pancake recipes would be good in the iron bc i loveee them all already as pancakes figured id ask
I’ve only tried the Strawberry Shortcake pancakes, but they definitely worked as waffles! You might need to leave them in just a little bit longer than a standard pancake/waffle recipe, but they were delicious!
thanks so much!!
I thought you were only going to do round-up posts for holidays?
In my post, I had said I was cutting back to holidays and every few weeks. I cut back from doing one every week, but a lot of the commenters in that post said they like the round ups and would be sad to see them less frequently.
I loveeee iced recipes! I have been big into my smoothies because it is May (and now June!) but no the weather isn’t that great here, unfortunately (I’m in Vancouver, BC). We keep hearing about how Toronto has a heatwave, but it is still rainy and chilly here. Soon some sun will come, I hope!
SO many options! I’m new to your blog, and oh so excited to start exploring your recipes! IT is not feeling like summer here anymore. IT was in the high 90’s a few days ago here in Chicago, but now it’s been in the 50s! Yay! One last sweater stylin’ week hopefully.
