Anyone who knows me knows I like to have a schedule and plan for everything. I could be a tad OCD but it works for me! When school was in session my days were planned and everything flowed smooth- Now.. summer is here and while I am glad I made the decision to relax and not work it has left me with tons of free time. I don't know what to do with myself! I head to the beach/lake whenever possible but time spent at home is open. My normal routine has been to wake up, pick up in the house, catch up on reading my favorite blogs, take the dogs on a walk, water the flowers and read a little. Kinda somewhat productive? Not really.. A new hobby is going to have to take place to keep this girl entertained.
On another note, I haven't quite finished the book The Dead Don't Dance but I only have a few pages left. I can already tell you that it's a great book and I recommend it for a summer read! I never would have picked it up but it was recommended to me by a lady from church. I decided to check it out and have not been disappointed! It touches on religion but isn't too heavy. It's based in rural South Carolina and southern charm throughout. I am taking a chance posting this before I completely finish the end so hopefully it wont disappoint!
Justin is in town visiting the family and I. We cooked out last night which is always a good time! I think tonight we are going to go check out the Hangover Two which I have been dying to see! Possibly some Mexican Food (My favorite!) I hope yall have a great day!
It's a tradition in the south- three simple ingredients and we are blessed with something heavenly. Water, tea bags and sugar will give you the perfect sweet tea drink we all love. Sweet tea is more than a drink where I'm from. It's what is always in the fridge at home, delivered by the sweet waitress uptown and offered to any visitor whether it be the plumber or your very best friend. There are a million ways you can spruce it up with mint or berries but I prefer the simple every day tea! Every time I start a new health kick and vow to rule out all soda and any drink other than water I assume sweet tea is the only exception! The North and South are of course separated by the Mason Dixon Line but I read a magazine article once they said it all too well: The real separation is when you pass over from that one diner with southern sweet tea to the poor North one that refuses to cooperate, bless their hearts. Luckily tea is awfully hard to mess up and everyone makes it a little different. The one thing that never changes it how amazing this drink is. I think I will pour me a glass right now- Have a great day!
