Five Super Simple Summery Recipes
My kids are surely among the last in the country to get out of school for summer break: Their year ended on Thursday, June 26. That, along with some cool, rainy days that dampened the mood mid-June, meant that when summer vacation did finally come, it arrived with a big bang of watermelon, sweet corn, ice pops and pie. I've now had several grilled burgers and even more margaritas; we even set off fireworks in the yard one night (apologies to my very nice neighbors). Summer eating can be exuberant like that. If you're in need of seasonal inspiration, we've got it right here for you in our Summer 100: 100 bright, easy recipes for right now. I've got five dinners from the list for you below, a taste of what you'll find at that 4 is coming up, too, and we have all the recipes you need. I usually make a pie — maybe sour cherry? Blueberry? (Frozen blueberries are a dream in pie, by the way. I like to buy the small wild ones, which are also great in pancakes.) Speaking of baking, I'm excited to spread the word about 'Cookies,' our latest New York Times Cooking cookbook, which is arriving in late October. It's written by Vaughn Vreeland and packed with 100 brilliant recipes for anytime treats. You can preorder your copy here. No one would be mad if you showed up at the barbecue with these pitch-perfect Rice Krispies treats, peanut butter-miso cookies or — bringing it back around to margs — these salted margarita bars, which Vaughn describes as 'Key lime pie's boozier, saltier cousin.' Ideas for me? Requests? Email me anytime at dearemily@ I love to hear from you. Rhubarb compote; crispy gnocchi with tomato and red onion; Greek salad; steamed clams. Summer on a platter: It's a beautiful sight. Ali Slagle uses a short list of ingredients, a broiler and a sheet pan to make this magic, all of it geared toward letting salmon, corn and tomatoes shine. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Cowboys fiercest camp battle will be at position they only invested $8 million in
Dallas Cowboys' training camp is going to be filled with battles for the last spots at multiple positions, but running back could be the toughest of all to figure out. The Cowboys have turned over almost all of the players at the position from last season, starting fresh with a mix of different options. The Cowboys haven't invested much in the position financially, around $8 million, which means there isn't much holding them back from an open competition. In years past, money has played a role in who saw snaps, but that won't likely be the case in 2025. Javonte Williams was one of the first players the team targeted in free agency, signing a one-year, $3 million deal. He is a young back who had an excellent rookie season with the Denver Broncos, but hasn't been the same since he tore his ACL in 2022. New head coach and play caller Brian Schottenheimer has routinely spoken about wanting backs who are a threat in the passing game, and Williams does that. He is also a solid pass protector, which a team with questions at offensive tackle could desperately use. The way the team approached him in free agency, his fit with what the new play caller wants from the position, and his youth make him the likely top candidate to begin the year as the starter. Jaydon Blue is another player who appears to have a guaranteed roster spot as a fifth-round pick who brings explosive playmaking out of the backfield. He never reached 200 touches in a single season in his college career, so he has fresh legs. A receiving weapon out of the backfielwith 42 receptions for 368 yards and six scores in 2024 , he also averaged over five yards a jaunt in his final year in Austin, combining for 1,098 yards and 14 touchdowns. Hunter Luepke does so much for the team that he is likely going to be the third guy in the running back room. He starts at fullback, can play as a lead back and tight end in limited snaps, and is a leading contributor on special teams. He has played 481 offensive snaps and 442 special teams snaps in his two seasons in the league. Dallas is skilled at playing games with their 53-man roster through the early portions of a season, and they may look to employ those shenanigans to effectively use more than three backs. Teams can cut vested veterans (four or more years of accrued service) without the player going through waivers, and this roster mechanism could allow them to release Miles Sanders, place him on the practice squad, and use call-ups to move him up to the main roster on game day. It allows Dallas to get a look at Sanders for a few games, and if he performs well, he can be moved to the permanent 53-man roster or remain on the practice squad if not. It's likely he is cut in an attempt to keep either Phil Mafah or Deuce Vaughn. With a loaded roster and Sanders able to be called up from the practice squad, it's possible Dallas doesn't put Vaughn or Mafah on the 53-man roster, but these two will battle to try to be the last guy. Vaughn has a story most Cowboys fans are familiar with. A very productive college back who fell in the draft due to his size, his dad is a lead scout for Dallas. He hasn't been productive in his two seasons with the Cowboys, which has hurt his chances, but the team's new offensive line coach is his former offensive coordinator at Kansas State, Connor Riley, so he has support within the staff. Mafah has a strong case to make the 53-man roster based on the Cowboys' recent history. They don't often cut their draft class. Mafah is a seventh-round selection, but in a deep running back class, he could be a fourth or fifth-round back on their draft board. Looking beyond the 2025 season, Dallas has Williams and Sanders on one-year contracts. They might not want to risk one of their few backs with multiple seasons left on their contract. Fans should look for Mafah to receive plenty of looks on special teams, which could help him make the roster. Follow Cowboys Wire on Facebook to join in on the conversation with fellow fans!

Lulu explains telling Brook Lynn she knew she'd had a baby, but claims she didn't know it was Gio. He gets angry Brook Lynn only wanted to do what was best for her. Lulu says Brook Lynn was a teenager, but Gio says they've been living together for months and she should have known he was her son. Lulu says she only figured it out when Lois came to his defense. She believes Lois and Gladys have been protecting him his whole life but went too far which only hurt him. Lulu continues, saying she found out Camilla wasn't pregnant, and Brook Lynn gave birth on May 15th. Gio's upset he doesn't know his own birthday. Brook Lynn and Marco discuss Britt and finding Rocco's birth certificate. Marco asks what she wants with the information Sonny tells Dante ADA Turner is coming after him, but Dante says he's been left out of the investigation.

Dante asks Sonny's help in keeping an eye on him. Rocco runs into Brook Lynn and tells her about talking to Gio and how he's still mad at Dante. He thinks she should tell Gio it's not Dante's fault.

She says she didn't put him on the approved list and says Willow is going home with her. Drew spots Portia and tries to get her to help but she says HIPPA laws dictate he has no say. Drew says the two of them need to remember who's in charge. He says he knows the two of them hired Jacinda to drug him and they need to do his bidding. He says he'll expose their secrets and warns Portia's career will end as well as Nina's relationship with Willow. The two are forced to agree to help him, and Drew tells Portia to convince Curtis to write about the injustice of the verdict.

She apologizes but he knows this isn't on her. Sasha tells Carly and Felicia she and the baby are moving back to the Quartermaines, since it feels like home. Sasha brings up Willow losing custody and wonders how she's handling that. Carly and Felicia tell her about Willow's breakdown and how she was hospitalized. A nurse brings in Daisy, but Sasha says it's not her baby. Michael shows up and reassures her as Lucas shows up with the correct baby. Lucas says the baby was in the nursery the whole time and was just in the wrong bassinet. Felicia drags Lucas away to chastise him for this mix up. Lucas agrees it never should have happened and they'll investigate. Willow doesn't want to go home without her kids, but Lucas reassures her that once the dust settles, Michael will be willing to work something out that's best for the kids. Drew stops Nina from saying anything to Willow, convincing her that they are all she has now. Drew tells Willow they need to go home. Willow gets released at the same time as Sasha and the baby.
