I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE hamburgers and was so excited to see that 3 of the
100 Best Burgers in America are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have eaten two of the 3 and plan to try 3rd place when I go home next. I also have many of the burgers bookmarked as they are in cities that we frequently travel to. Check out this list from The Trillist to see if your favorite burger joint made the cut.

Strawberries are the quintessential summer fruit and I would bet that you have never had Strawberry Jalepeno Salsa. Serve this with chips at your next bbq for a fresh, spicy summer snack.
If you need something sweet you make one of these scrumptious Chocolate Cakes with Fudge Filling and White Buttercream Frosting.
