Good morning lovely ladies!
Today I'm joining Elizabeth and Bluebeard with a Second On The 2nd. A blog post from the past. This one is from the first week of July 2016:
Good Morning!
It is now well and truly summer! Schools have broken up, legal summer schedules have come into force (like: not allowed to put rubbish/trash out between 8 and 20:00, and anyone in the building trade is not allowed to work after 3 pm) and clubs have all closed for the summer.
I have said goodbye to my fellow embroiderers earlier and Friday was our last day at the gym. We finished a bit earlier that day and we all went for breakfast at a nearby bar.
There's yours truly sitting on the right.
The Spanish breakfast is a toasted baguette with olive oil and crushed sieved tomatoes (and some salt).
This was my breakfast. I enjoyed it as at home I don't usually have this.
I'm joining Bluebeard and Elizabeth at T for Tuesday, where we can post anything that has a drink in it. Well, my drink is coffee this morning. I'm not a lover of milky coffee like the other ladies, so I'm having café cortado, which has a splash of milk in it.
The bar is decorated in a typical Andalucian way. Look at the beautiful tiles and the typical curtains:
I love the tradidional cut glass lamps. I have one in our stairway, but with normal glass (not colored).
Here is the postcard that I received today:
You are right if you guessed it came from Russia. The city is Kostroma, which lies about 350 km northeast of Moscow. The building on the picture is part of the Ipatievski monastery, the 17th century Trinity Cathedral.
This is the tiny stamp (I'd never seen this one before):
Juliya writes:"Do you have good summer days? Hope you do, because in central part of Russia it's only +10 in the 11th of June!" I would happily send her some sunshine and warm weather if I could!
Have a fab Tuesday and a blessed week,
Lisca
Dear Lisca. I love your post, but it must come for the past, not the future (grin). I'm sure you meant 2016, not 2026. I actually remember this post. I remember being confused by the summer rules. Is that because of the heat or some other reason?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you shared this second look on the 2nd and I enjoyed seeing it again. You don't look like you've aged a day, either.
I alway have at least two cups of coffee in the morning. Lovely ladies in pink....Yes, now it is real summer...but next week he is forcasted to have a cold break....
ReplyDeleteHave a good time

Lovely Second on the 2nd!
ReplyDeleteI think I remember this post. I remember the photo of all you lovely ladies in your matching T shirts having your traditional Spanish breakfast. So unless you've posted similar photos, then I remember this post. :) I hope July 2 is a good day. Have a super rest of your week too. hugs-Erika
