It’s 104 degrees as I write this. It’s supposed to get even hotter. I’m trying to stay cool and thought you would enjoy a few ideas I’m sharing on Saturday Smiles Mintwater.
Saturday Smiles Mintwater
While my niece Birdie was here visiting last week we discussed her high school graduation that will occur next June in Philadephia. I plan on attending and wondering if I can also include a trip to Mintwater Cottage in Rhode Island.
Stay Hydrated
Do you grow mint? It is very easy to do and grows very quickly. For that reason, I grow mint in a pot right outside my back door, versus in a garden bed. Drinking mint water is so good and good for you.
Dovecotes
After spying this gorgeous dovecote at Clove Brook Farm I have to wonder, “Will we now see dovecotes replacing chicken coops?”
10 Cold Summer Dinners
With such hot temperatures, I would do almost anything NOT to turn on my stove. These recipes look easy and delicious. 
What To Watch
Although I am late to the game I just had to share a movie that is beyond extraordinary. Earlier this week Sweet Guy and I went to see Won’t You Be My Neighbor. We were a perfect example of why this movie works on so many levels. I grew up with Mr. Rogers while Sweet Guy only had seen a few episodes which he could not recall. But the message is SO POWERFUL. I promise you will leave the theater with your heart full. Bring the kleenex because love is powerful.

OH, thank you for the review of ,Won’t You Be My Neighbor! It’s a must see for me!
WOW – 104 – I promise never to complain again. Last week we had 92 and I thought that was dreadful! Love this post and the recipes, especially the mixture for the flavored water. Thanks for the review on the movie – a great place to be if it reaches 92 again.
Have a great day and weekend, Laura !
Obviously, the Stayfree advertisements are here to stay. Why would anyone think that people would want to see someone sitting on the toilet? The underwear isnt down around the ankles this time. Si it is a little different, but really!!! But i stll find them annoying and offensive.
I took a screenshot, so if you want me to email it to you i can.
Looking forward to a post on the costume exhibit you attended today! I had lots of mint at my old house but it is invasive so I am reluctant to grow it here.
RI is about 6 hours or so from PA but if you come this way let me know!
What a fun post to read through. I hope you have a blessed, wonderful Sunday- xo Diana
