Hi Dear Folk,
Summer weekends just fly by, but here is one Saturday a few weekends ago. The Boy was away and and gave us permission to to use his Miata, so we decided on a picnic to Valley Forge Park and then onto a French Patisserie that we hadn't visited in a few years.
Time to rake out crocheted blankets and camping blankets, plus the picnic basket, flasks and my Haleakala water bottle/hot drink flask love that with the moon-scape picture on it. Baskets, are a passion, I also brought along my Amish basket, with journaling papers, pens, etc.
We like this spot with a view across the valley. Swifts were flying in and out of the doorway of the cabin, they had nests in there, nice and dry.
Nothing like a convertible on a summers day, I don't need to have one but access to one now and again is fun.
We somehow forgot where the French Patisserie named Aux Petits Delices was and wandered along the strip of shops we thought it was in, in fact we gave up and I said "Oh just let me look in that Moroccan shop" and there it was right beyond that, a happy find.
Our tuck.
With a nice cup of tea.

What a lovely setting for a picnic. I haven't had a picnic for ages. The cakes look delicious. We have to make the most of the summer before it rushes past.
ReplyDeleteThat does look lovely..both the picnic and the tea and cakes. And I do love your picnic basket!
