It's a beautiful, glittering blue sky day. After what seems like weeks of drizzle and torrential rain everything is again defined by the sharp relief of summer light. I am emerging from a muffling cold reluctant to leave, so took a stroll to the beach via The Real Patisserie for an almond croissant and cup of coffee, had breakfast on the pebbles and felt the breeze and daylight revive me. Not every post about what I have done on a particular day will involve the beach, but really this morning was too gorgeous not to write about!
