My favorites things {for the month of June}
1. Zoku Quick Pop Maker A dear friend of mine introduced this to me a couple of years ago and I’ve been envious of her instantaneous popsicle making abilities ever since. Perfect for warmer months when I’d normally turn to ice cream for a cool-me-down, now I can make my own quick and healthy treat.

As far as windows go, I’m of the belief that bigger is better. And, when deciding whether or not I love the bones of a room, windows are one of the first things I consider. My dining room was not a room I loved – at least not its bare bones. But, I’ve taken many steps to change this space into something I enjoy, something that I even love. One of those many steps was creating my “wall of windows.”
I started with one standard (builder grade) 36″ window, which was installed off-center on my dining room wall. This lack-luster window situation was made worse by the fact that trim had never been installed.
I love coleslaw – tangy and sweet, it’s my favorite summertime side dish. Because I like it so much, I make my own so I can control the ingredients and make it a little healthier.

I love my morning coffee. And, I love summer. But, sadly – the two cannot co-exist. The newly warm-ish weather strongly deters me from sipping on a piping hot mug for 45 minutes. That’s where the world’s easiest latte comes in.
First, pour a cup of milk into a glass jar. (I use 1%.)
