Bye July



It has been fun living with you. Crazy busy at work but fun at home. We watched the final part of Harry Potter in the drive-in theater, with the full moon shining down on us ... magical! Pool time at friend's house. BBQ in the backyard every other week. Delicious tomatoes and pepper from the garden. Watermelons will be ripe soon. Jasmine flowers spreading its scent all over the deck. Clear cool night outside. Iced green tea with honey and mint. Country music filling the air. Bunnies hanging out under the bird feeder. Cardinals, sparrows, robins, blue, yellow, black birds pecking on seeds. Song birds singing to us. Light breeze blowing every so often. Trimmed hedge. Close your eyes and imagine that ... that's my backyard. And those days with 95F-110F? That was when you hang out in the pool. That huge thunderstorm on Monday? The plants are thankful for it.
As for the picture above, sunflowers from the store, lilies and hydrangea from friend's yard.
August will be here soon. A new adventure. Hope it will be as great as July if not better. New moon on Saturday/Sunday?

Summer magic



Every season is different. What can I say about summer? Ice creams, yard sales, extended daylight, plants growing, animal all over the place, beach, shorts, fresh fruits and vegetables, flowers ... I could go on and on ...

Summer makes you happier. Fireflies, outdoor festivals, drive-in movies, stree fairs in NY city (woohoo!) ... sigh ... Life is beautiful in America!

Happy Summer!
