It seems that lately we are looking for any way possible to beat the heat!   A few days ago, I was looking through one of my Barefoot Contessa cookbooks and came across Ina Garten’s recipe for Watermelon Mojitos and yesterday afternoon I decided to make them.  After going to buy watermelon and raiding my neighbor’s yard for fresh mint, I put them together really quickly.  If you have the ingredients on hand this is a really simple recipe.  The recipe calls for simple syrup but I used agave nectar and that made it even easier. Keep scrolling for the recipe!

We are leaving for Bald Head Island today and I’ll be blogging from there!  I hope everyone has a great week!

Sarah was babysitting for one of our favorite little guys, Jackson, and he got in on the picture taking!

Jackson took this picture of me!  I think he might have a career in photography ahead of him!
