Here are some things that I have tried recently:
Meditation
Hiking alone (and with friends)
Road trips
Making underwear out of old t-shirts ( I might switch to pillow making).
Applying for graduate school.
Going on a hot air balloon ride.
Planning a camping/white-water rafting trip.
Making peach crumble. Oh, you want the recipe? No problem. You will love life too when you try this one! Enjoy!
4 cups slices peaches
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup granola
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup Brown Rice Syrup
1/3 cup Coconut Oil (YUM!!!!)
3 TBSP water
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking pan with the sliced peaces (you can also add berries to this). In a separate mixing bowl, add all other ingredients and mix until everything is combined well. Spoon the mixture evenly on top of the peaches and bake for 30 minutes. While the 30 minutes is slowly ticking by, make sure to walk outside the house to clear your nostrils and then walk back inside to enjoy the sweet smell of loving life.
I realize that not everyone has the opportunity for long summer vacation time, but its important that you find and do things that make you happy. What are the small blessings in your life?
Muah!
