Happy summer solstice a.k.a. first day of summer a.k.a. the longest day of the year! ☀️ I love this cup because it is so unusual, and I’m sharing it today because it reminds me of summer. The fuchsia orchids give it a tropical overtone, but the grey/blue background reminds me of rolling thunderstorms and sudden showers. I love long, sunny days, but I equally love those gentle days of rest. It’s definitely one of the things I miss most about Colorado summers; I haven’t seen a good thunder and lightning show in a long time. What are you looking forward to most this season? I’m looking forward to BBQs and taking the dog swimming. #teacup #vintageteatime #antique #cupandsaucer #vintage #teatimemagfeed #summersolstice #summertea #orchids #porcelain #finechina #lusterware #antiquestorefind #oldfashionedtea #lace #summerseason #thunderandlightning (at Bellingham, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/By-N8a7gvYc/?igshid=1o9b2ef69ora6
