Summer Days demand GOOD lemonade

Forget that powdered and frozen stuff. Here's how to make really good lemonade and it's inexpensive.

In a pitcher add one cup of lemon juice, one cup of sugar and two cups of water. Stir with a wooden or plastic spoon.  Add ice.Slice the lemon thinly and add to the pitcher. Pour into tall glasses and enjoy.

If you like strawberries or raspberries add them. Simple enough, right?

Happy New Year!

Today I'm beginning a daily post called Thirty Days, Thirty Simple Ways to a Happier You. Please take a look and comment. I'd love to hear your ideas.

It made my day.     The gift doesn’t have to be expensive and you don’t need to know the person. Why not buy the guy behind   you his morning coffee? Pick up your spouse’s favorite ice cream or candy bar. Have it ready for a bad day. The neat thing about this is that you’ll get as much happiness as they will. Who knows, someone may do it for you!
