1) My basil plant is out of control! I say this as someone who has emaciated every single plan she has previously ever owned.
I am so proud of my lush green basil that I take it with me in a little zip-lock bag whenever Josh and I go out for pizza, which I then whip out when my margherita pizza shows up with it's inferior basil. Yes, I know, he must love me a lot.
2) Plum juice running down my fingers
3) Our house has a deck which gets the best sun. And our boarder moved out last weekend so no more awkward moments of being busted sunbathing in my bra.
4) Actually wanting to go outside. This is not the case for 9-10 months of the year in Wellington.
5) Weddings. Especially the ones when it has taken the two people involved FOREVER to find each other and everyone has been waiting for this day for about 15 years!
6) Avocados. Guacamole. On toast. In salads. In burritos. Eating them straight out of the skin with some salt. I'm convinced that avocados were what God hung on the tree of life.
7) The pre-Christmas rush of lots of books, books, brilliant new books.
8) Holidays.
9) Finishing work at 3pm pretty much the entire month of January.
10) Fish and chips, especially golden hot crispy chips wrapped in fresh white bread dripping with butter and tomato sauce.
So what are your favourite things about summer? Or whatever season you're in!

After the coldest few days in 20 years (20 below zero) today does feel like summer here in Texas and it will be 80 degrees.

Are you ok? I hope everything is ok for you guys.
Wow! 20 below zero in Texas? That is crazy! We don't even get that cold in NZ and one of our neighbours in Antarctica!
