Thinking about the very brief summers we have and wanting to really soak it up...I like to sit on my porch now and then and just take it in.  (To save for snowy long dark days.)  Also love my evening motorcycle rides with my sweetheart!  And now adding some bike rides.  Love  a little wind in my face!

Oh and cut some bangs,  very much goes against my grain but I had a reason.  Decided it was a lucky necessity.    Hope you savor your summer too!

Sugar Cookies with Sage

 

 And a generous sprinkling of "Fun With Dick and Jane"

 Just a kick back Sunday...

 Had one of our Girl-date / sleep-overs and made sugar cookies again with princess Harley.  Fun fun.

After Poppy and I polished Harley's nails, she polished Poppy's toe nails.

 

--two traditions we want to keep.

So pretty, but DANG, it's cold!!

 There's been heavy frost on everything for quite a few days, so gorgeous -- but been bone chilling cold.

Our house is pretty cold, too, like the kitchen---can you see the olive oil is solidified because it's so cold ?!

See your breath when you cook, oh, yeah!
