When Life Gives You Lemons

What do you do? Make lemonade of course! Forever the eternal optimist I’ve always loved that phrase even if I didn’t understand what was so bad about lemons.  Simple pleasures like a cool glass of lemonade on a hot day can bring a moment of pure happiness. Time disappears in that first tangy sip, such as it does when viewing a gorgeous painting, you get lost in the light, color, layers, and bold brush strokes.
