Flickr finds: Morning Tea

Like I’ve said before, I’m more tea sipper than coffee guzzler. I like to start every day with a hot cup of tea, and from the looks of these Flickr images, I’m not alone. Happy Friday, everybody! 

I like the look of this muffin and tea in the studio, from jodigreen:

Flickr finds: From the Garden

With only enough counter space for a small pot of chives and another of (rather sad) basil, growing my own food is still a far-off dream of mine. Luckily we’ve got Flickr, and I can live vicariously through others. Happy Friday! 

Call me weird, but I like it when my veg still have dirt on them. Carrots and tomatoes from stevendepolo

Flickr finds: Green Cottage

Happy Friday! Check out this lovely pair of pics from Catskills Grrl‘s Green Cottage set. I must still be in the cottage mood, because I’m seriously loving these.

Flickr finds: vintage kitchen swap

jek in the box has one of my favourite photostreams on Flickr. Always visually inspiring, it’s full of colour, kitsch and general vintage fabulousness. I particularly like her vintage kitchen swap photos; I might not have anything to swap, but I can definitely enjoy looking. Happy Friday!

Flickr finds: Pots n’ Pans

I’ve always had a thing for hanging pot-racks: they lend such a practical, countrified feel to a kitchen. These Flickr images perfectly describe what I’m talking about. Happy Friday! 

I love all the copper in this pic from JonesGGallery

Flickr finds: In the Pantry

For someone with a just few overstuffed cupboards in the way of storage, these images are pure bliss. Happy Friday!

Cool (part of a) Kitchen: Industrial Cheer

I’m not sure if this qualifies as a complete Cool Kitchen as we can’t see the entire room, but I love this photo of Flickr user linsmika‘s kitchen wall. The super-organized setup looks pleasingly industrial, thanks to all the stainless steel and glass storage jars. The touches of red take away any chance of it feeling sterile, and make the whole place seem cheery and bright.

Flickr find: Mandarins

I found this photo in Yogma‘s Macro Mondays set. It looks like how everyone should eat on Mondays- sweet and virtuous. Love that honey drizzle.

One of those instances of something that shouldn’t work in theory looking lovely in reality… love these images. Happy Friday, everybody!
