Something that absolutely screams summer for me is a glass of nice, cold, refreshing iced tea. It’s so simple to make it and keep a container of it in the fridge for those hot days. Can’t stand using the powdered stuff, as I don’t want all those chemicals in my body. Just lovely, sweet iced tea.
In the heat this weekend, Steve really fancied making some red wine sangria…as we have red wine on hand and usually have a lot of fruit hanging about. He whipped this up and left it to chill so that it was ready to have with our dinner.

Today is the start of Daylight Savings Time. Pffft. I hate DST. I resent having that hour stolen from me, and I remain displeased until it is returned to me…in November. Bad enough that we have to go on this, it has been shown to be unproductive and dangerous, but some yo-yo at the top has decreed that we peons must endure it….and it gets worse every year, as the Americans stretch it out, and we copy them. At least this DST morning, I woke feeling rested for a change. I’m giving some credit to this honey lavender drink.
It’s a miserable, damp day so I needed something comforting to drink.
One of my favourite hot drinks is chai tea. I don’t like the overly sweet stuff sold in tetra packs, and teabags will do in a pinch, but when I have a few minutes to spare, and some room in the fridge, I like to make  a batch.
