SISTERS, 8X10, OIL, SOLD

It may not be summer in your neck of the woods, but we have had temps in the high 80's to mid 90's for the past few weeks.  A trip to the beach seems like a fine idea.  I found this trio of sisters enjoying themselves last summer and it seemed like the perfect scene when a family member asked for a special painting for her sister's birthday.  Happy birthday, Susan!

Everyone seems to like nuts, especially cashews, so I wanted to share this recipe with you.  I guarantee it will become one of your favorite go-to recipes for entertaining.

ROSEMARY ROASTED CASHEWS

1 1/4 lbs cashews
2T coarsely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1/2 tsp cayenne
2 tsp dark brown sugar
2 tsp kosher salt*
1T melted butter

Preheat over to 375 degrees.  Bake nuts for 10 minutes on ungreased baking sheet.  Combine remaining ingredients in large bowl.  Toss nuts until evenly coated.  ENJOY!
*if you are using salted cashews, adjust or omit additional salt to taste.
