Okay, I am pushing it just a little. Summer doesn't officially arrive until June 21st, which is also Father's Day this year, but I always feel as though it's summer once June is here. The gardens are starting to look beautiful, lupine starts to appear, the lilacs are in full bloom, and the lawn has been mowed several times by now! Oh yes, I did forget those little flying bugs.
We are lucky indeed to live on the coast of Maine.
Here are some of our favorite things this summer . . .
- Flip-flops (get that pedicure and let your toes sing). We'll be carrying OKAb flip-flops; pretty styles and colors.
- Colorful Bangles on bare arms.
- Seals sunning themselves on the rocks between Georgetown and Southport.
- Strawberry Rhubarb pie (I've made two).
- Colorful Dash & Albert rugs underfoot.
- Displaying shells in pretty jars.
- Vance Kittera candles in lovely pastel shades.
- Cut flowers from the garden in vases.
- A pretty pashmina over my shoulders in the evening (arriving soon).
- New summer pillows on the deck chairs.
- And of course, Lobster on the dock at Five Islands!
Thank goodness we live in Maine.
