colours of summer

The sun does indeed play a vital role on your moral and your mood in general. People are more cheerful, carefree and they smile a whole lot more. You see burst of colours everywhere you go. The streets are lined up with flowers and plants of different varieties, the countryside sways to life with the season's crops.. summer fruits choke the stalls in abundance, with signs gaily announcing berries, prunus and melons of every kind which will instantaneously rouse your taste bud. It's best to buy fruits that are 'in-season' as they are more ripe and full-flavoured than 'out-of-season' fruits (the same goes with vegetables). Our favourite buys are cantaloupes, cherries, strawberries and nectarines. Fruits here can be expensive especially so if they're produced in France but with all those delectable, luscious fruits beckoning you, it's hard to resist... miiiiiaam!
