Knowing that seasonal depression isn't coming for me or any loved ones is a big one. I love wearing shorts. I love having a full day. I love that there's this opportunity to plan things ahead of time without being worried about not knowing the weather. I love the sun. I love the smell of sunscreen and chlorine on a beach towel. I love ice cream. I know it gets REALLY hot sometimes and humid and there's mosquitos but something about all the nuanced things that make up this season make it worth it.
Yeah it’s not technically summer for another few weeks but I’m calling it now. Go to the beach, lay out in the sun, and enjoy the sun, the water and a cool refreshing beverage. Hang out with your friends. this is the time to be sweaty and have fun.
basic but i love it. my current flavour rotation currently is 1. frozen berries melted down to a jam and topped with greek yogurt. and 2. using chocolate milk in place of regular milk and topping with fresh blueberries. don‘t knock the frozen berries till you try them!
2024, if i had to sum it up in songs would be blood orange. when i tell the music got me through the year. if you haven’t already heard them you must listen to “the complete knock”.
