friends and fruit

 cantaloupe and raspberries in hand-built bowls

Summer is the time to gorge on fruit, we eat fruit all day long this time of year. 

...on french toast made from homemade challah, or in crepes, over scones with whipped cream, & out of hand.

 a friend brought a gift from Sweden, so charming

This is a cloth made from wood fibers, nice and thick for wiping down counters. Friends came to lunch...

 we ate russian cream with berries

 three kinds of lavender, origami bowl of cherries

The next day, other friends dropped by after visiting the Oregon Lavender Festival with more presents!

I like my Swedish rug and Swedish table and Swedish cloth with Oregon sunshine pouring in.
