“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.” ― John Lubbock, The Use of Life
Summer is in full swing here in Alabama with temperatures most days reaching close to 90 degrees. Summer also brings some of our favorite seasonal fruits and vegetables.
