Instead, paths and parks are open for exploring, pools are kicking into high gear, and new fitness classes are starting.

Why is exercise step #1 of this plan? Popsicles: A Closer Look Summer is a great time for popsicles... but are all popsicles created equal? Popsicles are fun summer treats. They're generally small, and they come conveniently-sized in single servings. This makes them perfect for easy portion control.
