Outdoor person?

What do you think of when you hear "outdoor person"?

Some big buff lumberjack with a tree ax swung over his shoulder and one hand on his hip. Ole Blue by his side?

Maybe a blurred image of a speeding helmeted bike riding triathaloner....

Do you picture rocks and harnesses, the delicate balance of steep ascent. Climber vs mountain?

Are you on a river with a paddle breezing down a wild river......

Well....think again!


At this time of year in Oregon its all about the garden. Outdoor person takes on new meaning, and I spend as much time outside puttering in my 10x20 piece of paradise that I can. I hang with birds, butterflies, bees and the chicks. Occasionally a lawnmower or the infernal leaf blower intrudes but on the whole, it is peace that surrounds me in my garden.

One of my favorites, refreshing invigorating Spicy Chai, a blend of lovely vanilla, sweet caramel, cinnamon,with an underlining of Ylang Ylang, Cyclamen, Lily of the Valley, Musk, Myrrh and gentle fruit notes which bring relaxation - a sense of euphoria and rejuvenation.
