Ah, August. That time when we, here on the central coast, finally emerge from under the marine layer and get some actual heat. For the tomatoes, and maybe if we’re lucky, for the peppers.
A month with a gorgeous green birthstone, peridot. For those who can’t quite bring themselves to love the bright, yellowish springish green of peridot, consider tourmaline, or even moldavite. Talk about your stardust, if moldavite could talk, we’d get quite a tale indeed.
Maybe you don’t have an August birthday, maybe you’re just a big old fan of Steven Universe, and that’s how you learned about gems. The more the merrier!
