The Wonders of Spring!



Spring in Newfoundland brings delightful seafood. Lobster season and trouting happens very close together. We enjoyed delectable lobster for Lloyd's birthday and Hugh went out to a point here on Pool's Island to collect these beautiful sea trout that taste much like salmon. Lovely!

Mother's Day Tea at the Edge






New paintings, new tablecloths, new recipes were the preparation for our High Tea. Cucumber sandwiches, shortbreads with white chocolate and raspberry, scones with lemon curd and whipped cream, chocolate sponge roll and chocolate truffles filled the plates.

The sun shone during tea on both Saturday and Sunday, favoring our celebration. Mothers left with a stem of carnations. Both Hugh and I had great fun.
