Having spent the last few weeks in the hot and humid weather of the East coast of the US - I got to thinking again about outdoor spaces and entertaining. I spent several evenings out on a back porch of relatives in Queens, New York barbecuing, enjoying bottles of wine and plenty of banter. It made me realize how much I miss American summers where 98% of your life is spent outdoors.
So, coming back to our wonderful Irish weather - that has suddenly turned to autumn, on this last day of August I just wanted to relish one more glimpse of outdoor entertaining spaces. We can always dream....
As many of these spaces are covered, they could be realized for the Irish summers.
How can you adapt your current outdoor space to become more enjoyable next summer? Will you add cosy cushions to your bench? Buy an outdoor heater, a new grill or a substantial awning or umbrella to stick it out even in the rain?
Spent the winter dreaming and hoping for a gorgeous summer in 2010 and think about how you'll transform the garden to make it ready for those precious moments of sun.
Until next summer.............................
