30x30

Well, as these days are adding up, I have found that some items on my list have proven 

to be a bit harder to actually accomplish than others. 

Take Day 14 for example...

take a swim in the ocean.

Doesn't seem so hard since we live a mile away, 

yet I didn't take all the factors into account.

Even thought Monday was a beautiful 80°, 

welp that water was still icey.

Joining the Polar Bears Club....not on the 30x30 list.

Among other things were the terrible rip current and choppy waves 

and a major mess of sea weed.

All factors for a relaxing float were a negative.

Hey at least it was warm and sunny.

Yet the boy and I managed to play in the freezing shore break

 for long enough for him to end up soaked.

Of coarse it ended up just a perfect day,

just the way it was.

DIY: Herbal Lemonade

Ingredients:

6 whole lemons (juiced)

1/2 cup of Raw Hoeny*

3-5 sprigs of Rosemary

2 oz. Dill

2oz. Mint

2 quarts water

First boil the 2 quarts of water and add the honey to dissolve.

Place the mixture in fridge until cool.

*tip: after it was all done I added an additional 1/2 cup of honey.

Juice all  your lemons,

and muddle your herbs.

In a large pitcher mix the sweetened water, lemon juice, and muddled herbs.

Place in refrigerator for 2 hours.

Garnish with Rosemary and we also added some blackberries.

Enjoy!
