Morning shower, getting ready for the day

Morning shower, originally uploaded by cabanagirl.

There is nothing quite as fine as a morning shower to wake you up and get you going. I do wash my hair every morning. I do use soap everywhere but gone are the days of shaving my legs every day. What makes the hair on your legs grow slower as you get older? It is a strange thing, don't you think? I am not complaining. One less thing to do in the morning. P.S. I do like the color blue but as I discover painting the ordinary things around the house.....I do not have much of it around me. My granite in the kitchen, my children's and 2 of my grandaughters' eyes and the sky. That's enough! Have a great day!

Morning tea

getting ready for the day, 3, originally uploaded by cabanagirl.

After my walk I head for the stove to start my water for my morning tea. My favorite is Stash's pomegranate raspberry green. I love green tea but some of it tastes a little too grassy to me. This one is perfect. What I don't drink hot ( I usually brew 2 bags) I add ice to later and then I'm really happy...iced tea. The other essential item: Le Creuset tea kettle in Dijon (now available in citron) available at Williams-Sonoma.
