Things I love about summer.

By , May 31, 2011

  • Strawberries! Especially when dipped in chocolate.
  • Gardening.
  • Putting away the blow drier!
  • Feet free from socks and closed toed shoes.
  • Sunshine and freckles.
  • Spending time lounging out back.
  • All the fun free things to do.
  • Swimming.
  • Hiking, biking, and tennis.
  • Craving lighter foods.
  • Geocaching!
  • Day trips.

Summer isn’t really here yet in my part of the world, but unlike yesterday when it was cold and the heater was on, today is warm and the air conditioning is running. I’m so ready for summer to arrive, and with it, all the fun things I love about it.

Taking their time.

By , May 23, 2011

This year the winter was longer, colder, and wetter, than it had been in some time. This week has been nothing but rain, other than one sunny day on Saturday. As such, the flowers are taking their sweet time making an appearance. The bleeding hearts are barely out, the iris are just starting to make blooms, peonys are almost ready, and lilacs are just getting started. As for our roses, it looks like we may have lost one of our bushes, but I am holding out hopes that they are going to recover.

Even the tulips slept in this year.
