Every summer, I try to spend as much time as possible at Skylands, my home in Seal Harbor, Maine.

I always enjoy my trips there, especially when friends and family are able to join me.

Here I am with my Chow Chow puppy on the way to Skylands, my home in Maine. She's very comfortable on the plane - the ride lulled her right to sleep.

A Delicious Beef and Vegetable Terrine

Read More About Terrine Recipes on Martha's Blog

Savory summer vegetables picked fresh from my garden are some of the best elements for making a delicious French inspired terrine.

A terrine commonly refers to a French forcemeat loaf made with coarsely chopped ingredients. I have made several terrines on my television shows - check my web site for terrine recipes.

Our summer interns are off to start another year in the world of academia!

At the beginning of the season, we welcomed 48-college students from across the country into our internship program. For 10-weeks, these young adults received mentoring and hands-on experience in various areas including product design, editorial development, and business management. 

Last week, our human resources team in charge of our internship program organized a farewell brunch to thank them for their hard work and to wish them well in the year ahead. 

Thanks for all your hard work. We wish you all the best!
