Summer of Simple...Simple things done well. #1. Honey Lemon Tea with Mint





I have given myself a challenge.  It is the biggest(besides marriage and kids..ha!) that I have ever tried to tackle....living simply.  In a world where more is always available, ready and easily at hand, to say 'no' to myself is difficult.  I want the latest piece of technology, a new outfit, and food I can buy and eat in just a few minutes.  I am trying to empty the drawers, cabinets, and calendar of fullness, business, and stuff. Hard. I'm trying to find things that allow more freedom to my day, more freedom to my life.  Hopefully, this will leave time to spend with friends and family, time to breath a little better.  So, I started with simple thing number one.  Honey lemon iced tea....with a little mint from the garden.  We'll see how it goes. For right now, the tea tastes great.
