Somedays
All you need is a ancient blanket strewn beneath the cherry tree
and a few cartons of Thai takeout.



And maybe a popsicle too.

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN CELEBRATING SUMMER, MON CHICKADEES?

p.s. Did you know that the collective noun for chickadees is a banditry? IT'S MY VERY FAVORITE ONE... a banditry of chickadees... always up to no good!

A banditry? Love this word. Love the Dog days of summer but no, I have not been celebrating but I so am in the mood for it!

Banditry! That's fantastic. The chickadee is my favorite bird of all, and now I love them even more simply because now I can use the word "banditry" when discussing them.

It's been hotter than a blast furnace here, so I celebrate summer by sipping ice cold cocktails in the shade. It's too hot to do much of anything else.

LOve that scene )
I have been celebrating the summer with copious amounts of ripe heirloom tomatoes and nightly reading in a tiny nightgown in my big comfy chair.

These are the things I miss most when it gets cold.
