This was Saturday 
Lunch - Gumbo & Fries
I usually only order a cup but I was starving so I got a bowl instead, but of course I couldn’t finish it. My eyes were bigger than my stomach. Something my grandmother has always said was a problem of mine
Tea shop
I like this little shop, zen tara tea. For summer it is wonderful because I don’t like iced coffees much, so I can get fresh brewed genmaicha iced instead.
They’ll ice any tea for you.
But they also serve iced coffees, sweets, sushi, sandwiches~
Last time I visit I bought a bag of Rose Earl Grey tea which has been delicious.
Teas and tea ware are all through the store down the side hall.

Brookside Gardens

Sunday I really wanted to get out to the usual orchard to shoot off the rest of my Golden Half film and just enjoy a quiet morning. 
But those plans didn’t work out so well. 
The orchard’s summer flowers just aren’t what they used to be. 
Feeling extremely disappointed and up early on a Sunday Mike suggested we finally check out the the Brookside Gardens. 
Have to say I was surprised! 
This is a great little public garden. Plenty of walking areas and varying collections. It was busy but not crowded. You could still just stroll having private conversation. I think we’ll definitely be back. I got the “stress break” I needed here and felt re-energized 
Photos include the children’s garden, rose garden, sunflowers in the yew garden, and the conservatory.
