Tea with the ducks and fairies
I've had a lovely afternoon at the tea room. I brought my darling grand daughter Shannon with me, and she was enchanted with everything. She ordered Persephone's cakes and Baba's tea, while I had the delicious Butternut squash soup and Kwan Yin tea. We both had scones and blackberry jam - the scones were so light I thought they were flying away, then Shannon pointed out it was just some naughty fairies.
After lunch, I sketched Shannon feeding the ducks as she sat under the willow tree. Shannon is mad about ducks and we saved some scones to share with them.
Mmmmm - maybe we'll have just one more serving of scones before we head home.

This is so gorgeous. The colour is light and fresh.
Delightfully done, beware the swans.
Swans! How wonderful - when I lived in Ireland I used to play on the banks of the Grand Canal in Dublin. The swans there were very aggressive in nesting time but I managed to keep the peace with them by taking bread with me. Next time I shall look out for them.
This is just gorgeous Gail. I do declare the purveyors of pencils are going to notice an upsurge in their sales. Now swans, particularly the black swan are very dear to my heart.
This is so sweet! What a lovely day!
