Moments of Bliss (Remembering the 27th of July)

There's something special about late July. It's still summer and the summer moments appear in different ways; amusement parks, bike rides, fresh squeezed lemonade, picnics on the beach, swimming in a lake, ocean, or outdoor swimming pool, eating ice cream, picking blueberries, enjoying the sunshine, boating, paddle boarding, camping in the woods....there's plenty more to add to the list. I even remember coming across "Late July" organic crackers in an adorable box that I loved eating in late July. Now the company is famous for their "Late July" tortilla chips available nationwide and I'm certain sales are the highest in late July.

I have my reasons for liking the 27th of July, my favorite uncle was born on July 27th, I had one of the best days of my life in Vermont on July 27th, and today on July 27th I did some incredible swimming in a pure fresh water lake, got to paddle board for free. was treated to a meal at a Mexican restaurant by a friend and found the perfect dress and shoes for only $25.00.  It is moments like these that we can really be grateful and give thanks for those blessings. Yes, life is a rollercoaster of ups and downs, highs and lows, good and bad.....so when special days come along that brings some bliss, we can treasure those moments and keep them in our memory.

Everyone deserves "moments of bliss." Happy Summer wherever you are, and yes there are parts of the world where's it is winter, not summer but you can still have "moments of bliss" in all seasons.

LATE JULY PRODUCTS EXIST TOO:

LATE JULY: Nicole Bernard Dawes founded Late July Organic Snacks in 2003. I vividly remember being in a natural foods market in Manhattan, NY and stumbling across a box of her crackers. They were cheese crackers and they were delicious. I wrote Nicole a letter praising her for her amazing product and packaging. The printing on the box of the little boy with his dog on the beach was in fact her little boy. Nicole was so grateful for my encouraging and letter of praise that I received a personal letter back from her with a case of LATE JULY ORGANIC CRACKERS included as a gift.  The company now generates over 100 million in sales. So you see, good things happen in Late July. 

Happy Birthday to those born in JULY.
