Sublime Sunday, Eclectically so
Cherish. The. Love.
The breaking day brought the sun out to play.
Frederick Keonig
A symphony plays
The strings of my heart
Harmonizing
Nature
Music to my eyes — at the corner of harmony and melody.
I slice my oranges, lemon, and limes thin. I find some tried and true recipes to make the infusion yummy. I have found that yummy is key. If it doesn't taste amazing, I probably won't drink as much.
I have found I really love just plain lemon infused in my water. Take the slices and put them in a drinking container and fill it with water. Sometimes I like to put all three of these citruses together or even add grapefruit instead of the orange. I have gotten a little more adventurous over the years and started adding herbs such as rosemary and thyme, but keep in mind that the longer it sits, the stronger it will taste.
Flowers. There must always be flowers to color my world. I dedicate this picture to #SundayPurple #ColorChallenge by @Kalemandra, who colors my world every single day! And just for the heck of it, we will throw in those red in the back for #MondayRed. A twofer of sorts.
And just like that, these musings are done. I want to thank @ace108, @c0ff33a, @kalmandra, and @old-guy-photos for hosting these challenges and just so you know, although much sun and shine were used up today, I can guarantee that there is still a little left in my heart. Have a most fabulous day!

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"

What a beautiful @dswigle, fishing with your son, beautiful flowers, sunrises and fruit infused water!!! All done with a smile and a loving word :) What a great way to start the fall season. I love infused water btw...love it when we travel, its so refreshing. And of course that last dessert post....mmmmm
I'm a sucker for doing anything at the water! I do love and savor those salt inspired moments. It was quite The Eclectic weekend and I didn't do anything in particular but I did everything that I could imagine.
I was surprised at the amount of people that did not know about infusing their water. Seems like many people buy bottles of water instead. While I am not a huge fan of that because I don't like the water in those little plastic bottles, I have been known to drink one or two. I hope that you have a most wonderful weekend yourself and that this is the start of a beautiful fall.
Thank you for stopping by and saying hello and leaving your words behind.

Darn i forgot my fridge photo just realised when i saw yours. What a great mirror image in the water in the first photos great blog
No way! How could you forget your fridge photo? LOL
Somebody just asked me if I used to stock photo for my refrigerator picture. LOL I think that's funny. Isn't it funny how some days the reflections are just there and other days you have to work a little bit for it. Thank you so much for stopping by and say hello and leaving your words behind.
I feel pity for me because it's going to be 95 degrees today yet again. Today is the first day of fall and I'm going to be sweating. However tomorrow should be down in the 80s which will make it nicer and more livable. I wish you a most wonderful week ahead!

What a delightful post one that make sone get such a feel good feeling reading it
How sweet of your friend to leave you that note
Have a great day and week :)
Thank you so much, JJ! I do have the best friends, ever! I think they know how much they mean to me and I treasure their friendship. It's always been this way and it was funny because it was in the middle of the night that her and her husband were traveling south for an event and so they didn't even stop in because it was the middle of the night. But she did stop by long enough to post a note on my door, reminding me of the famous Kilroy was here signature. Today is going to be 95 so all bets are off on nice weather today but tomorrow should drop into the 80s oh, so I probably will stop whining about the hot weather. Do me a favor and remind me how much I want about January time frame. That's when I'll be freezing and wondering when it will be getting warm again. Of course, you know they're so making me happy with weather. LOL
I wish you a wonderful week ahead and I want to thank you for stopping by and saying hello and leaving your words behind.

Well you know why you have the best of friends, because your such a caring and good friend to them :)
In the mid to high 770s here this week, but I will take that quite comfortable temps :)
Thats why I try and not complain about the heat, as I know I will be missing it in mid winter lOL
Always a pleasure to visit your posts :)
Ditto, for sure!! Every time I think about complaining, I remember shoveling snow off the sidewalks. Ugh.
Life is good, right?
Go Wales! :) And that was brutal with Scotland yesterday.
Ohh yeah thats not fun, I am glad where we live now thats something I do not need to worry about :)
And yes life is good
Ohh yeah that was a tough game, the All Blacks Boks game was tough but not as tough as I thought it would be when those two teams play it can be fireworks and brutal
I havent watched the Wales game yet but that should be an easy win for them, so far no upsets but its still early
Wales has got this! ;)
After I get back from the Dentist I will watch the game I did see the score but will still watch it :)

Beautiful, @dswigle!
Do you know that Nando's is a South African brand? How nice to see it in your post. And lovely flowers - as always!
!tip
I actually did! We love it here! The man was born in Mozambique to Portuguese-Mozambican parents and I know that it was a Portuguese colony (I believe) but he later moved to Johannesburg, where he opened up a place.
We happily support it. :) And I just couldn't resist the heart. And thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful start of the week!
