So looking forward to a weekend of lovely things.
Perhaps a Gin & Tonic with my husband,
as the evening shadows fall,
before going to the theatre.
Then a tray of crispy apples by the log fire,
as a midnight snack.
Breakfast in a vineyard on Sunday morning,
to celebrate Father's Day.
And the children & I will be baking this
for afternoon tea.
{With garam masala for a touch of delicate spice.}
Isn't the illustration beautiful?
It's by the clever Alexandra Nea.
I hope you have a beautiful weekend,
whether farewelling summer or welcoming spring,
wherever you are.
