Peony buds with lots of ants
Homemade grilled pizzas
Almost time for strawberry jam making
Biking on the Cape
Masses of forget-me-nots
Long walks with friends in gorgeous weather

Rose petal jam
Really simple crackers
Writing short letters on beautiful cards
My sister's watercolor paintings
Talking to my son on the phone
Long summer evenings
Sitting quietly, doing nothing
Looking at old family photographs
Jigsaw puzzles
Ice cold sparkling water

A fresh cup of tea, brought to me in bed, first thing in the morning.
Listening to Georgia On My Mind by Ray Charles.
The smell of roasted coffee beans.
Early morning walks along the beach.
SALAMI.
Reading Girl On A Train.
Talking to my Mum on the phone. Telling her stories of far away places.
