"Just living is not enough." said the butterfly "one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."
Hans Christian Anderson
This is such a pretty image, it must be the sun tea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely pitcher for your sun tea! I need to make some sun tea, too! And a mental list of all the things I am grateful for...
ReplyDeleteYour sun-tea sounds wonderful, Carla. I'd love some this week, as it's supposed to be a warm week. The sunsets, birds, and flowers are all things to be grateful for. And the butterfly quote is one of my favorites. : ) Have a lovely week, Carla, and thank you for these "joy list" posts. They make my heart happy.

ReplyDeletehi Carla... such a beautiful quote. Sounds like a pretty good Monday that you have planned. I'm guessing that salad is going to be so fresh, healthy and tasty. Enjoy your Blessing on this beautiful Monday
ReplyDeleteSounds perfect. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteOh gramma B always made sun tea. Hers was the best because she has spring water. Janice
ReplyDeleteYes to all of those things! I was at one of my favorite places here in Madison, today, and thinking about how wonderful mild summer days are here in Madison. I'm so glad the humidity has lifted...even if it's only for a few days.
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely thoughts! xoxo
ReplyDeleteIve seen some butterflies and they are lovely. Yellow ones and I think I saw an orange one today. T hey like the flowering clover out front. I love your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI will add: Open windows, with a breeze, a drink by the lake , the pony in the field nearby, ....the new puppy I just my neighbor bring inside her house. She was rocking it. I think it is a cocker spaniel....
That's such a pretty pitcher for your sun tea. So many special joys!
ReplyDeleteHow great to have a fresh salad from your garden. Yum and I bet so tasty. Love sun tea in the summer too. Enjoy the week ahead. xoxo Kris
