The Taste of Summer


It has been a long busy week for me.  I feel so out of touch with all of my blogging friends!  Work has taken over and I'm juggling having one child home from college and one high schooler who is bored already!


It's all good though, I'm not complaining (much).  I am still trying to finish up all the custom quilt orders and can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.  I keep wondering why I do this to myself, but I do love to create something special for someone.


So why all the photos of lemonade?  Well, it's sets the standard for summer refreshment (with iced tea being a close runner-up, in my opinion).  I've been experimenting with many different recipes as of late.


I love all the summer images that the word "lemonade" evokes.  So today, during a little downtime, I'm going to pour myself a tall glass and visit your blogs.  Hope to "read" you soon!  Blessings!

Smiles,

  1. Lemonade does say summer and your pictures bring memories of summers past. I know what you mean about needing to catch up with bloggers. That was my goal this morning too. Glad I stopped by here first.

  2. Lemonade is my favorite beverage during the summer. Lemonade stands have a special place in my heart - my boys had one when we lived on a cul-de-sac a few years ago. Such fun!!

  3. Once again, you have brightened my day with a beautiful picture and post. Somehow that little lemonade stand just brought me a little bit of sunshine to an otherwise dreary, rainy day here at home! "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray". Thank you!

  5. Oh this post makes me laugh. I have been on a lemonade craze for the past week or so. I don't know how many times I have sent my husband to the store for lemons (or how many times I have cursed the freeze that took out my lemon tree). :)
