SUMMER
Memorial weekend marks the unofficial beginning of summer. According to the calendar year June 20 is the official first day of summer, but I prefer to use Memorial Weekend as my starting point. A good friend of mine declares a theme for herself ever summer. Some past themes have been the summer of flip flops, sundresses and ice cream in which she had a blast eating, but gained 20 pounds. Her theme this year is the honey badger. Many people are familiar with the honey badger from his you tube video www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r7wHMg5Yjg Warning, if you are offended by profanity don’t click on the link. However, it’s pretty funny.
I’ve decided to pick a theme this summer as well. My theme is create. I love to gather ideas on decorating, recipes, crafts, travel, beauty, fitness, etc. I often spend more time researching and gathering ideas (i.e. pinterest) than I do making them. So I am declaring the Summer of 2012-

“As we become purer channels for God’s light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be. ” Marianne Williamson
