Summer Favorites

August 5, 2024

If you know me well, you know that I am not much of a summer gal. I do not like being hot. I think if we lived someplace that didn’t get terribly hot I would love summer. The longer days and the lush greenery is delightful. I just cannot stand being hot. It really makes me kind of angry. Anyway, I have decided to make a list of things that I like about summer, so that I am not as angry about it being summer and stop wishing away the season.

  • ice cream

  • pool days

  • long days

  • lots of sunshine

  • the way rain cools off the day

  • fresh fruit

  • flowers

  • weddings

  • traveling

  • sunsets

  • tan lines

  • no shoes / sandals

  • fresh juice

  • iced tea all day

  • open windows ( at least when it isn’t too hot )

  • reading outside

  • sun dresses

  • the summer I turned pretty

  • baseball caps

  • farmers markets

  • festivals

  • lots of good movies come out

  • going to the zoo

  • camping
