Cherries are so delicious now, dark and sweet and sooooo good! The rainbow children are here to pick fruit and enjoy the culture and adventure of it all the tourists are happy enjoying themselves. The lazy days of summer. Just had a few small orders in the studio lately. Its Siesta time in the valley now. Time to enjoy the summer!!

Summer

Well, we are still waiting for summer anyway, our usual "Sunny" Okanagan has been rather dark lately. We hear it will be coming next week! Certainly can`t complain too much as we live in a beautiful paradise. When I look around this crazy world, I think how am I so blessed to live here and do what I love? Gratitude fills my heart everyday. Growing season is upon us and things grow a little every day. Its such a delight to run to the gardens in the mornings and see how they`ve miraculously grown overnight! We are embracing our gardens and growing more and more food every year. There is nothing like eating a meal that we grew ourselves that is still filled with life energy and nutrients. Ahhh, the good life! Anything you give attention to will flourish! We create our surroundings and all that happens to us. Attitude is so important to the outcome of everything. We can choose to keep the shiney up. Act as if you are excellent, even if you are a little off and soon you will be excellent. We really have that power. Its ok to feel bad sometimes, feel your feelings and let them run through you, then you can quickly change your mind, like a fish darting in the water! Try it!
