This morning when I woke up and realized it was the first day of June, only one thought came to mind: hello Summer! With its warm weather and long days, June is a perfect time for outdoor cooking and alfresco entertaining. Whether you're hosting a chic soirée by the pool or packing up your family for a picnic in the park, here are six items that will make your month magnificent and memorable.
Happy Hour: Tinto de Verano
Spain's cheap variation of sangria, the tinto de verano, is quite simply a red-wine spritzer. Refreshing and delicious, this concoction is my go-to drink when I'm in the mood for something light. This easily drinkable cocktail is a delightful alternative to beer and wine.
Choose a mixer that suits your tastebuds: sparkling water, Pelligrino Limonata, and Squirt are variations that I've made, and always garnish with a fresh lemon wedge. To learn how I recently made this version, which uses Hansen's new sparkling water, read more
Off to Market Recap: Wine Cooler
Last week, I told you about DearSugar's search for a wine cooler to give at Christmas. She always gives me wonderful advice, so I agreed to research wine refrigerators. I asked you to help Dear and me by hunting for an extraordinary wine cooler. You looked for fridges that have dual-temperature settings, can hold more than 30 bottles, and are free standing and attractive. You saved the wine fridges in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag Wine Cooler.
The fridge that Dear plans on purchasing is one that both gruaig_rua and emalove discovered. This wine cooler holds up to 50 bottles, is totally freestanding, and has chrome, pullout shelves. Thanks ladies! For more options browse through below.

Off to Market Recap: Pink Kitchen
Pink is my favorite color. Call me crazy, but if I had to marry a color, it would be pink. Since it's Breast Cancer Awareness month, I thought it would be a great time to pack my kitchen with pink! Lots of companies are selling pink kitchen tools or pink linens with proceeds that go towards the cure.
Since I love the idea of getting pink kitchen supplies while doing something good for the world, I asked you to help me find the most fabulous pink kitchen supplies. You bookmarked your discoveries in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag Pink Kitchen. There was an amazing selection of all things pink, from rolling pins to onion goggles.
I loved the 48-piece pink food storage set, but my favorite find was this pink crystal wine cooler. A girl after my own heart, aimeeb says it's something "every girl needs"! Thanks to everyone who participated! If you are interested in pinking out your kitchen, browse below for ideas.
