I bought these macarons as a little post house-cleaning treat, and while normally I’d make myself coffee to have with them, it is so hot here at the moment that jasmine tea felt like the perfect alternative. It’s a bonus that my neigbour’s jasmine is in full, fragrant bloom and trails over our communal fence. I love how the flowers echo the pattern on my tea cup and plate.

- tag your post #regularrandom and ping back to Desley’s post
- have fun!
Gorgeously pretty and delicate. Love it. The cup is stunning. I hope you enjoyed the macarons – yum!

My jasmine is abundant this year; the evening perfume is divine. But alas I don’t have a dainty cup and delightful macarons to accompany the jasmine presence. Beautiful photography.

Beautiful and delicious! Perfect combination, Su! Having some problems with my stomach and thus having to retain from coffee I totally get the tea at the moment 😂 At least I’m allowed hot chocolate which is also very yummy. And after a couple of days the caffeine craving even stopped!
Love the idea of treating yourself after the cleaning, I shall do this too from now on! 😁 xxxxxxx

I love the scent of jasmine, Su. A cup of tea and a macaroon would go nicely about now too.
