I love summer.
Love.
Love.
Love.
Love.

I used to hate the heat and, frankly, I still kinda do. But it's so nice to have your body completely engulfed in warm air. I've been trying to run every morning. I really despise running. Except, I love the feeling of ending a long run. Unfortunately, running when it's 95 degrees out is awful. Fortunately, there's a great breeze that comes off the bay when I run down Bayshore.
I normally do a little cool down walk before coming inside the house. My routine is to change out of my workout clothes and slip into a light dress (or robe) to cool off and slice a large grapefruit.
Citrus just tastes that much better in the summer.
Inspired by summer (and not painting as much when I'm at school) and by my morning citrus ritual, I decided to paint some citrus!!!
Mouth watering yet?
