We were on vacation for a few days last week…like a very few…but I thought I’d post a quick mountain photo just because. Michael & Karl…this one’s for you. May you finally make it up to the top of Longs Peak one of these days…
I’ll be back with more photos of the fun we had in Estes Park, and look for new construction updates on Monday!
Sometimes the only way to get through a day is to take a quiet break. A tea break is one of my quiet times of choice.
Even better since I can use one of my grandmother’s antique teacups. Makes me smile every time I use it. Oh, and the teaspoon? That was from my grandmother’s everyday set. I rescued it from my mother’s basement. I just love things like that. Things that link me to my ancestors. Think how many times my grandparents and my mom used that teaspoon. How many times I did as a child. But you know I’m kind of an antiques nut anyway, don’t you?
Anyway…what do you do when you need to take a short break? What’s your quiet time of choice?
(I should have more house construction photos to show soon! Cabinets are in! Some of the flooring! Some of the trim! It’s really starting to look like a real live house.)
So, for the first time ever I made Frozen Peach Yogurt. Actually Frozen Cinnamon Peach Yogurt. A person can never have enough cinnamon. Just saying. (recipe over on my Kay Pickens Photography blog…I’m kind of getting into the the food photography thing.)
There is something so summery about peaches. I love them. I’m very sad that their season is coming to an end. Anyone else feel that way? I’m so over the heat and draught (though we got hammered for a few days of badly needed rain–compliments of Isaac). But I’m just sorry that the fresh fruit is going out of season. The only flowers I have still going are zinnias and badly draught abused roses.
Kids are back in school. School busses on the road. Halloween decorations in the stores. Thanksgiving recipes starting to show up on magazine covers. Sigh.
I guess summer is really going to end, isn’t it?
Well, the good thing is, I do have a bunch of sweaters that I love that I’ll soon be able to wear.
So, what’s your favorite season?
