Sunny Delight

When the weather gets warm, I love enjoying my meals outside in the sun. Of course, I make sure I wear my favorite sunhat and sunscreen, but the sun does wonders for my complexion. It really brings out the blue in my eyes.   

The other day, I set up a picnic blanket in the middle of my garden and enjoyed fresh sweet peas right off the vine.

I think it is really important to take some time to unwind and relax. My favorite way is to do it in nature. It is absolutely wonderful to be able to hear nothing but the birds chirping and the wind passing through the fields.

Although sunlight can be very damaging, a healthy amount of sun exposure actually benefits our mood. Usually after I garden early in the morning, I take a long break and eat a delicious lunch of cucumber dill sandwiches (fresh from my garden) out in the sun.

After lunch, I head back into the house for a refreshing drink. Since my knees still hurt, I take my Micosamine supplement and wash it down with an icy-cold strawberry and mango smoothie to get energized. Now, Stella’s ready for the rest of the day!

So I encourage all of you to try it. Take some time out in the sun to enjoy yourself and the nature around you. It’s good for your spirits and good for your health!
