Today well-lived makes Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness and every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope. Look well therefore to this Day! Such is the Salutation of the Dawn. --From The Sanskrit.

Vintage Bathing Belles - Your great grandma's bathing suit!

This one is quite cute!

By The Beautiful Sea!
By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea!
You and me, you and me, oh how happy we'll be!
When each wave comes a-rolling in
We will duck or swim,
And we'll float and fool around the water.
Over and under, and then up for air,
Pa is rich, Ma is rich, so now what do we care?
I love to be beside your side, beside the sea,
Beside the seaside, by the beautiful sea!

Spring Tea Party
Isn't this vintage image of two young girls at an outdoor tea cute? I just love the quaintness of it. It reminds me of the era of Jane Austen books. ~Raspberry Tea~
8 cups water, divided
3/4 cup sugar
6 small tea bags
3 cups unsweetened raspberries
In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Stir in sugar until dissolved. Remove from the heat; add tea bags. Steep for 5-8 minutes. Discard tea bags. Add 4 cups water.
In another saucepan, bring raspberries and remaining water to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Strain and discard pulp. Add raspberry juice to the tea mixture. Serve in chilled glasses over ice. Makes about 2 quarts.
