From the Editor

Dear $$firstname$$,

I’d like to personally welcome you to our online community. As a Taste of Home subscriber, you're entitled to receive this exclusive subscriber-only newsletter each month, free with your magazine subscription. Using the links in the newsletter is the easiest way to enjoy all your Taste of Home Plus online benefits. In each monthly Plus newsletter, you'll find bonus features, recipes, photos, expert advice and "insider information" to supplement your current magazine issue. It's our way of saying "Thanks for being a loyal subscriber!"

Great grilling…sweet corn at its best…frosty ice cream treats and more summer delights are on the menu in your June/July magazine. It’s in the mail now! My hubby Louie has already flagged the Baby Back Ribs (page 16) and Family Favorite Kabobs (p. 18) to cook out first thing. Don’t those kabobs pictured on the cover look mouth-watering?

Speaking of covers, we photographed two potential covers for the magazine, then invited employees to vote for their favorite. It was a close race between the kabobs and the Star-Spangled Fruit Tart on page 51. Both are best bets for a memorable summer meal! (Think we chose the right cover?)

As always, this newsletter links you to subscriber-only bonus features including a handy Summer Recipe Guide and a gallery of creative summer cakes. In addition, you’ll find bonus recipes for two, favorites for the grill (plus an informative kabob video), some super sandwiches for quick summer suppers and more. Enjoy!

—Ann Kaiser, Editor
