schätzli vintage: blog: summer

I really do like summer.

But I have to admit that it's much more fun when you're a kid. And it's SUMMER. And it lasts SO long! And you can't wait to get out of school ... and then back to school!

WAIT! back to summer. My summer means full-time work. Watching the hired mowers cutting the grass. Turning my heater on when 71 degrees is too cold for me. Wishing I was home.

But sometimes it's...

Finding your first ripe tomato!

Fresh green beans from your tiny garden.

Having a Jackson who loves to eat green beans. :-) Yes, he loves them

Summer. It's good. :-)

This Blog

Hello there, friend! My name is Lisa, I'm a wife and a mommy, a daughter and a sister, a friend. I'm silly and sarcastic, contemplative, sensitive and creative.

I love making and appreciating beautiful things, hunting and enjoying else-loved treasures, laughing with friends and eating sweet things. I love the country and think I was probably born in the wrong era. I am a sucker for vintage, dresses and anything European, like tea. Especially tea.

I've also lived in the third world, can't throw a water bottle away (or anything for that matter) without thinking about where it will go and my part in caring for the world.

I started this blog to update supporters on a European volunteer journey I took 10 years ago and it's morphed into stories and DIY with a smattering of vintage and handmade. I write about whatever is me (piano teacher, mommy, sign-maker) for the moment.

Thanks for stopping by. :-)
