Tea Drinking Weather

  This spring has been the best.  As far as staying cool longer, lots of rain, and green everywhere!  It really was wonderful, rather than the quick intro of maybe a week of spring which transitions suddenly into the heat of summer, there was almost a lazy tone to the pace of spring this year.

   So, like everyone else, I couldn't help but notice the change this past week into the hot summer days.  We bid you farewell soft spring breezes and welcome the sweat trickling summer.  Not that I am complaining, this means I can get my mason jar out on the porch for sun tea!   There is nothing much better than a cool glass of ice tea on a hot summer day!

Let's Stop and Smell the Flowers

Today was one of those peaceful and thoughtful days.  The kind when the sunlight streaks through the trees with a special magic that can give pause to your daily schedule and just make you sit and take it in.

 My Shasta Daisies are blooming beautifully.  They seem to understand the magic in the air and have turned towards the window to capture as much of it as possible.  I think I will do the same . . .
