Normally I fight the exclamation point. I say to our writers, “If you woudn’t yell it, a period will do.” But I would yell, “salsa!” today because we finally crested 80 degrees, tomatoes are planted, decks and patios are primed and salsa is one of the greatest pleasures of summer.

First up for me: I am going to use this salsa fresca recipe 100 times.

Then when I need to mix it up: I’ll try this fresh corn and avocado salsa recipe.

When summer is winding down and I can’t bear that it’s almost over: I will learn about canning salsa.

Where is your bowl? This one is all for me.
