Happy Summer Solstice to all my Dear Readers.

I made a favourite breakfast of Blueberry Pancakes with creme fraiche and maple syrup for my lovely Mr S.

Our eldest daughter came for the day and we had a delicious lunch in the Redruth Buttermarket in bright sunshine and with colourful hanging baskets and bunting blowing in the breeze. The excellent  kitchens allow for each of us to choose – burger, foccacia, pad thai.

Later we had a rather warm walk down to the beach at Trelissick. All in all, a delightful happy day.

And of course, my own lovely Dad is also in my mind today, especially as we enjoy Trelissick which Mum and Dad both loved too.
