Dear ##firstname[Friend]##,

##\keycode.IntroCopyContentHTML####\keycode.DonorContentGiftSubHTML##

Welcome to summer! As this busy season kicks off with a slew of outdoor gatherings, Father's Day, summer camps, graduation parties and more, how do you trim time in the kitchen? Do you turn to slow cooker dishes to keep the house cool and ease mealtime? Do you always chop and prep ingredients before cooking? Or do you put dishes into soapy water as you cook to speed cleanup later? We're on the hunt for the habits great cooks know and the tools they turn to for cooking success for an upcoming feature story, and we'd simply love to hear from you!

This month will be a very busy one for my family. My husband and I are expecting our first child later this summer, and I'm hoping to get a head start on meals by making several freezer-friendly dishes ahead of time. With Father's Day later this month, I'm interested in trying a few new grilled dishes. And, with the Fourth of July right around the corner, I'm hoping to whip up a simple crowd-pleasing appetizer for my family and friends. What dishes have you recently tried? Email your favorites to simple@tasteofhome.com and don't forget to share the timesaving tips I asked about above. Or stop by and visit us at Facebook.com/SimpleandDelicious and Twitter.com/SandDmag. We look forward to hearing from you!

—Mary
