August

 August is often referred to as the dog days of Summer ... a month of heat and humidity, crickets  chirping, fireflies lighting up the hedgerow in the early evening, lemonade and putting up preserves.

Around here it is all of the above plus a lazy cat or two basking in the sunlight.

And I must admit with all the canning going on, a little squirrelly at times.

So I think I'll find a cool place to sit, put some of this delectable handspun yarn I recently purchased on the needles...

 
And indulge in the dog days of Summer too!
