WORLD CANCER SUPPORT MONTH World Cancer Support Month is observed in August to raise awareness about the importance of supporting those affected by cancer—patients, survivors, caregivers, and families. It's a time to highlight emotional, physical, and financial challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis and to encourage compassion, connection, and community support.

STAY HYDRATED IN THE AUGUST HEAT We all know august is a hot and humid month. Don’t forget to stay hydrated especially on those busy on-the-go days. Consider other hydrating alternatives to just plain water. Many fruits have high water contents to kepp you and your family cool and hydrated all day long.

FIND THE PERFECT HYDRATION FOR YOU If plain water is boring for you, try infusing it with different herbs and fruits!

Cucumber + Mint + Lime is a relaxing spa must-have.

Blueberry + Lemon + Rosemary is an antioxidant powerhouse.

Orange + Ginger is immune boosting.

Watermelon + Jalapeño is a sweet and refreshing kick.

Coconut water also has may hydrating factors like electrolytes. But, if you would rather indulge is a refreshing snack, consider one, or multiple, of these choices: Watermelon Cucumber Celery Tomatoes Pineapple Zucchini

MAIN STREET KITCHEN & BAR BAKED BOURSIN SPAGHETTI SQUASH INGREDIENTS

1 medium spaghetti squash 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved 2 teaspoons olive oil 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 (5.2 oz) package garlic and herb boursin cheese

INSTRUCTIONS 1.Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

2.Poke slits all over the spaghetti squash skin with a knife. Microwave the whole spaghetti squash for 34 minutes so it’s easier to cut.

3.Let cool for a couple minutes. Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise.

4.Scoop out and throw away the seeds/ribbing.

5.On a parchment paper lined baking sheet, place the spaghetti squash inside facing up.

6.Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the spaghetti boats. Drizzle some olive oil over the cherry tomatoes.

7.Rub olive oil on the sides of spaghetti squash.

8.Season with garlic powder and salt.

9.Crumble 1/2 of the boursin cheese round into each of the spaghetti squash boat.

10.If using, top with 1 diced sausage link and 1 tablespoon of sun-dried tomatoes.

11.Bake for 35-50 minutes, or until the spaghetti squash around the rim is tender when you stick a fork in the spaghetti squash and the strands come apart easily.

12.Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes.

13.Use a fork to mash the tomatoes and boursin cheese together into a sauce. Slowly scrape and fluff the strands from the sides of the squash, mixing in with the sauce a little at a time.

14.Serve out of the boats! Or dump into a bowl to serve.
