It's sun tea time

It's that time of year, again! Time to put the jar of water and tea bags out on the patio and watch as it magically brews itself, with the sun's help, into my favorite summer beverage. Paul and I both have wonderful summer memories of sun tea and it's making. His grandma used to use old mayonnaise jars, multiple ones, and set them out in the summer's heat. My mom, too, always had a glass carafe set out in the sun during those long summer days.

Now, Paul and I carry on the tradition and, today, we made our very first sun tea of the season!

I hope you all are able to take part in those special family traditions, those seasonal rites of passage, and enjoy the blessings of the coming months!
