". . . if you allowed yourself to be enchanted by the beauty to be seen in even ordinary things, then all things proved to be extraordinary."~ dean koonz
. . . summertime at last, my favourite time of year and there's a beautiful heaviness to the air that only comes from languorously hazy & humid days, and there are plans for picnics {more than anything} and hand-rolled waffle cones with two scoops {mango and pralines & cream}, golden beaches and midnight walks . . . and whether luxurious plans for afternoon daydreams on gold-threaded italian silk and strolling the winding paths of elaborate gardens, or sunlit days on terraces and dinners outdoors at sunset, wishing you a summer filled with more beauty than you can stand . . .
happy first day of summer!

What glorious shades of sunshine yellow! Love the peaceful stillness of the gardens, what a magnificent place to walk and think and dream.
Fall is next, if I live through the horrid heat wave we are having.
Can't wait for some cooler temperatures, but it's only going to get worse before it gets any better.
Midnight walks...that sounds glorious.
i wish my bedroom looked like that!!!
