August 2013 was a month that I’d like to wipe from my memory. But in August 2013, our business softened, renovations to our new building were more costly than planned, and we were now the owners of two mortgages, our home and our business. Prior to that, we thought we were golden. Yep, life was good.

I rarely drink it during the other three seasons, but from June – August, I can’t seem to drink enough freshly made iced tea. I love iced tea in the summer time. My husband and I got hooked on store bought iced tea years ago, but it was loaded with sugar and at the rate we were drinking it, the tea cut into our food budget.
