solstice

I heard on the news that we will have a hot summer this year and this first day was according to that. Saturday is the day I usually shop on the local market and the flowers were incredibly cheap because they fade quickly with the hot weather. Two big bunches of carnations came with me and right now they are coloring several corners of my home.
Ouvi nas notícias que vamos ter um verão quente e hoje já tivemos uma amostra. É ao sábado que faço as minhas compras no mercado e hoje as flores estavam incrivelmente baratas por causa do calor. Trouxe dois braçados de cravos, refresquei-os e andam a colorir os cantos à casa.
Ice cream taken after lunch in a shadowed room and a fresh lemonade on the end of the afternoon. Little pleasures of the summer season. Have a great summer to all of you!
Gelado depois de almoço saboreado na penumbra da sala e uma limonada fresquinha no fim da tarde. Pequenos prazeres da estação! Para todos um Verão do melhor.

Ice cream and lemonade would really hit the spot on a hot day. It has felt like summer for about a month here in Texas. We've been making a pitcher of iced tea everyday to stay cool.
Happy summer to you also.
