The
Leisurely Days of Summer
I hope you’re set & ready for another
summer journey! We will be coasting, from now till the end of summer. I hope
you’re all prepared for the journey, well let’s make it slow while we’re
sipping a tall cool drink of ice tea, while thinking of a prose or poetry might
come to mind. The bliss of spectacular shows of colours & explosion of the
colour palettes of flowers & it’s whiff, from pastel to vivid, butterflies
of all shapes and shades, birds and dragonflies.
Speaking of flowers & afternoon or
morning teas, don’t forget to visit my neighboring friends with their
magnificent collections of flowers, teas and noble stories to amuse you; 2 of
my favorites Judith of Lavender Cottage (http://lavendercottagegardening.blogspot.ca/) and Carolyn of Aiken House & Gardens (http://warrengrovegarden.blogspot.ca/2012/07/pink-peonies-roses.html#links).
Judith has invited me to join their afternoon tea at the Rose Chintz Cottage (http://sandimyyellowdoor.blogspot.ca/);
how thrilling! Both have inspired me to be here more often and to tell you my
stories too :o)
Speaking of teas & flowers, I would love
to share you my dinner date with my hubby on the week-end, and as well is a
breakfast with my family.
And that reminds me of letting you know about
my “blonde beach bum” isn’t she super cute? What do you think? I told you she
loves the sun. I have to dress her for the summer with her matching hat. I
guess I have to settle with the vivid colours right now. I am sorry that I have
been busy for the last few days with the household chores, admin duties and my
photography. Processing my photos takes time too, I maybe a bit too hard on myself
sometimes especially when it comes to photography; I am the biggest critique of
myself. I don’t really have to do a special processing for my images for the
blog, but for my flickr page, well that’s another story, as well as images for
the club submission. Didn’t I tell you that I also belong to the camera club
locally here in Surrey? For the avid photographers I would love to recommend
you to join your local camera clubs, its fun, & exciting! I’ve learn a lot,
met new friends, joined competitions and the ever gripping field trip galore.
Just like my flickroos friends I have quite a
few in numbers and they’re all super cool. I hope to meet more marvelous friends
here like you. I got so hooked in collecting tea cups & saucers & tea
pots, I also love to write…
One day I went and search on the net for the vintage
tea cups & saucers and that’s how I found my favorite sites that I regularly
visit. Besides, now my blog is not only
about my photography but also sharing my afternoon tea with friends like you.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s plan a tea party and let’s get together
while “Summer is here” Till here and see you more often.
May your summer be blessed with sunny
memories, embellish with memorable afternoon teas, writings and photography.
A great afternoon to all,
I forgot my old colored bottles in my boxes down
in the basement, I was about to throw them away, but I said “wait a minute, I
can re-use it!” and here it is!
These are some of my loyal friends who’s been watching
& sitting on my garden for quite a while now. My backyard has fewer flowers
than usual; I’ve gathered most of my flowers from my front yard. ❥
Don't forget to see my next page my littlest "blonde beach bum" is awaiting...
