One of my all time favorite summer songs is DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's SummerTime. It's a head-bobbin', windows rolled down song that takes you right back to the summer of 1991, but is still a jam 20 years later. You know the one:
Summa, summa, summa-time. Time to sit back and unwind...
Here it is... the groove slightly transformed
just a bit of a break from the norm
just a little somethin' to break the monotony
of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
a little bit out of control it's cool to dance
but what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
give me a soft subtle mix
and if ain't broke then don't try to fix it...
Who knew candy could be a "lifestyle accessory?" Discovered these Bendicks BitterGingers at Central Market (in Washington) over the holidays. Like a peppermint patty but with dark chocolate and ginger. About $6.00 for a tube of 8 disks.
I'm a planner, but I just can't get behind Christmas decorations in August, not even Halloween in mid-September. I'm holding onto our short summer for dear life, even if Mother Nature has other plans (um, 85F on Sunday, high 60s and cloudy the rest of this week!). So you'll understand why I made Guinness brownies this weekend. St. Patty's is so far out, I can't even imagine it, so it's the perfect time to mix beer and chocolate.
