Know Time for Knitting: July 2010

Friday, July 30, 2010

ragged, tired, old and worn; still lovely and beautiful

(a quilt my mom gave me made by my dad's aunt maudie)

fresh baked bread - a true delight

definitely a beautiful sight for 100 degree weather

(a Mint Julup at the High West Distillery enjoyed on our date day to Park City yesterday)

dear Dave, our resident dragonfly
(not the same dragonfly james heroically rescued last summer, but definitely related)

things I'm loving right now...

sunscreen - a generous gift from God to the fair skinned
a tv free home
a seeming cool Summer thus far
great fruit & veggies from street corner farmer stands
late night summer fun with friends
NPR (as if I didn't listen enough to their podcasts, with no tv we do listen to more radio now)
finishing great books - last one "Redeeming Love" - a re-read (not at all a fan of Christian romance but this is a brilliant exception)
sewing
nightly neighborhood walks with my james
Greek yogurt
sleeping with the window open
bats visiting our pond

Happy summer everyone! I hope you are making time to enjoy it and finding delight in the seemingly small thing.
