ah.
i love summer. lazy mornings, trips to the lake, garden produce, hours and hours of sunshine, eating outdoors, cool morning runs, flip flops, snow cones.
i am a summer girl.
here is a playlist to listen to whilst sipping a chilled beverage floating on a raft down a lazy river while bees hum decadently around summer wildflowers (or while scrubbing your kitchen floor and pretending that you are doing this). my favorite song is track #3, london, BEN HOWARD. i think this will be music week on my blog. i'm headed off right this moment for a 2-day writer's retreat, but when i get back i'll be sharing some more music and some of my favorite sources for discovering new talent.
hope you are all enjoying your summer. i am making the most of every minute. let me know if you'd like a mixtape ;-).

ReplyDeleteI always love the music you share. Thanks for the fantastic tunes.
ReplyDeleteI am a summer girl as well. It's hard being down here in the heat and wanting summer to end so I can go back outside, haha. So i guess I'm starting to become a Springtime girl. At least while I live in St George, that is!
ReplyDeleteYou are the coolest person I know. Of course I want a mix tape so I can pretend and be cool like you are! :)
So glad your writers retreat went so well. I can't wait to read the final product.
