Tea cup Tuesday, we only have time for breakfast. Some days are like that.

We’ve come to really love tea cup Tuesdays but Chloe’s on campus all day today so the only chance to have tea with my sweet child was at breakfast.018 copyIt started off as a lovely sunny morning and, since both our bedrooms face east, we decided to have breakfast in my bedroom and catch the morning sun.012 copyI draped an old cashmere shawl on the little table as a table cloth and that gave us an orange and burgundy theme.I have a few pieces of this orange transfer ware? (not sure) china. The mark is a bunch of numbers and letters and one word, “mattese”,016 copyand one spectacularly orange Aynsley cup.037 copyI made our breakfast favorite, Earl Gray tea, soft boiled eggs, toast and a large bowl of fresh fruit.038 copy062 copy015 copyMorgan, figuring she’s one of the girls, decided to get in on breakfast.044 copyI think that, especially living in Vancouver for part of the year, it’s a good idea to chase the sun around the house and take advantage of every little ray.071 copyThis was such a good idea.One last sip of tea...074 copy...and off we go. Do you think Morgan will do the dishes? Yeah, me neither.Happily linking up with Terri of Artful Affirmations to admire her birthday tea cup prezzy, and to Martha, and sending Martha lots of love and strength. I’m still thinking about you and I care. And Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage.
