My Newest Inspiration!

Have you ever had a time in your life where something inspired you? Something that made you see something you had never seen before. Or maybe look at something in a different way?

There are so many things that can give someone an inspiration. It can be a book, a picture, a song or even a color and I am excited to share with you my newest inspiration. I just can’t seem to get enough of the color purple! Everything purple catches my eye. Although, I am not noticing the light purple as much as I am the deep, rich, eggplant purple! The main thing I love about an inspiration is that it usually is something that you look at and it automatically puts a smile on your face!

When I look at a deep, rich purple color it makes me think of the darkest color of a beautiful sunset and I can almost feel the warmth of the sun at the end of summer. It immediately lifts my mood helps me to remember the little things in life.

Here are a few pictures to help you understand the richness of the color and just how beautiful it is.

Cucumber Melon Infused Water

I wrote earlier this summer about lemon and mint infused water. Now I want to share with you another one of my personal favorites: Cucumber Melon. It doesn’t get much easier than infused water, it is so refreshing and easy to make.  For those of you who don’t know, I am from the Chicago land area and we hit record high this summer, we had over 50 days in the 90 degree weather. If you have even been to Chicago you know that 90 degrees feels like over 100 degrees with the humidity. Need-less-to-say having a nice ice cold glass of infused water is so very refreshing.
