I celebrated National Hot Tea Month back in January, so you just know that I’m going to celebrate National Iced Tea Month in June! These are the goodies that I’ve found so far, hop on over to Pinterest and join me in collecting all the delicious choices.
Hey, look! There’s my sun tea recipe from a couple of years ago! (It’s my board, I’ve got to contribute my own tea-love you know.)
May your afternoons be filled will front-porch rocking chairs and cool glasses of iced tea!
The moon has reset and will soon start to wane. This is your monthly reminder that now is the time to release any bad habits or negative thoughts you might be holding onto. As our view of the moon shrinks, sliver by sliver, let it take that which you wish to release. Allow yourself the freedom to let go. It’s during this lunar phase that the growth of leaves on plants and trees starts to slow, because as the moonlight fades, the plants push their energy down to the their root systems. Focus on strengthening your own roots, the part of you from which everything else grows and flourishes.
The quote on the photo above is from one of my favorite books, The Girl Who Chased The Moon by Sarah Addison Allen. The story is enchanting and always inspires me to go out and chase the moon. I took the above photograph during our full August moon in Orlando, Florida, United States on August 30, 2012 at 8:45 p.m. EST, using my iphone.

It’s officially summer! Let the outdoor-free from school-fun begin! Of course, with all of that fun will come bumps, scrapes and bruises, especially for the little kidos in your life and Drippy Ducks are great way to make things all better. My mom used to make these for my brother and I when we were little and I can attest to the fact that they definitely help make booboos better…faster. Just insert an ice cube into the Drippy Duck’s bill and hold on the injury.
Edit: My mom just found the Drippy Duck rhyme that she made up when my brother and I were little, scroll all the way down to see it!
In addition to these fun little duckies, check out my column on hellogiggles.com. This week I’m talking about three great herbal remedies for healing those minor summertime booboos.
I hope your summer is off to a great start! I’d love to see pictures and hear your stories if you give this fun crafty project a try!
