August Daze

I think I have been a little restless

maybe

because it has been so Hot and so dry.

Normally I would be planting my fall garden

but

this year because of the extreme weather we are having

I don't think anything could grow in my garden .

It has been 100 degrees every day with no rain this month

so

I am not even sure when to try to plant!!!

So I have been

going to the very warm farmer's market in search of chocolate macarons

wondering if you can ever eat enough fried okra and purple hull peas

cooking and more cooking. Why in the August heat? Who knows?

thinking I am so happy I planted zinnias

living in basil heaven. It must love the hot weather

listening to the enchanting sound of fairy bells when the wind moves

my new wind chime

falling so in love with the sun, sand, waves, cool breezes and the freedom

of the ocean

painting the inside of my television cabinet

spending time with my sweet friend

I could eat this every day

fresh peach cream pie

 lunch with my sweet friend at Cafe Rabelais

chalkboard love

I know it has been a long and very hot summer

but 

when my friend and I left the beautiful cafe after lunch

I looked down as we were crossing the street

and said,

 " Cheryl look down!"

We both laughed so much we forgot all about how hot it was

but

we will never forget this August Daze !!!

" He that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast "
