  5. I love your "joy list" posts, Carla. They bring a little sunshine to my day, and I needed it too, as I'm dealing with a lot of messy things this June. How nice to have a long conversation with your sister on the phone. The rhubarb growing in your garden is wonderful, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you make with it. The suntea looks refreshingly good. And I've always loved this little quote.

    Have a blessed June week, Carla.

  7. I never had sun tea but I've been drinking a lot of lemonade without sugar today. I've been in the garden all day and it was hot and humid.
    I love your joy list.

    I will have to find the time to bake a rhubarb pie. I have such a huge patch of rhubarb with all the rain we've had.

    Tale care and enjoy the fruit of your labor.
    Hugs, Julia
