into August...

...entirely skipping July! Here are some things I have been reading and looking at lately.

 I think since I am a visual learner I definitely get a fear of missing out when I see photos of places I would like to travel, food I would like to make/eat, and things I would like to have in my home.

 I love taking the long way home - through the woods, fields, a new neighborhood, the scenic route

 I would like to make a quilt like this from scraps

 recently I made peach nectar and tomato sauce

this week I want to make carrot soup: this one or this one?

 I read Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain

and The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron. 

Apparently I am both. :)

 This video about harvesting orange blossoms in Italy is breathtaking
