We had a beautiful morning today……the sun was shining, there was a gentle breeze and there was a slight mist in the distance. I’m so ready for the weather to change – it has been one long hot summer here in Australia.
Time for a breakfast tray. I love all these cute black and white patterns. The hounds tooth fabric on the bottom of the tray was given to me by my Mum recently. It is so cute and had the price tag of 5/-. That is 5 shillings!!!! Australia changed to dollars and cents in 1966 (I think!!) so this has been stashed away in the cupboard for a while! I adore the little black and white bird cage bowls – just perfect for cereal or fresh fruit.
I have added a cute yellow egg candle to the white egg cup.
This all spells a beautiful sunny morning to me…..
I have been baby sitting my grandchildren a bit lately and have just returned from the beach house today so I am feeling a little worn out tonight. I have a whole day at home tomorrow by myself…I can’t wait to just potter around.

Black and white is so classic and then with the bits of yellow for accent - perfect.
Your morning tray looks so pretty and welcoming. Gets lots of rest.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
It is so neat to me that we are just starting Spring here and you have just come out of Summer! I love the black white and yellow! I have a collection of black and white that I might have to display soon!
Loving the black and white with the yellow. Thanks for linking up at Monday Funday. Take care, Laura
I love black and white dishes, napkins, tablecloths, etc. Your post is so refreshing and cheerful. Great way to have breakfast in the morning.
Have a good rest and enjoy your day.

Hi,
I hope that this email finds you well.
I recently came across atthefarmhouse-suzyq.blogspot.com and would like to discuss the possibility of paying you to display an advertisement on the site.
We have a large customer base of clients prepared to pay to display discrete adverts, contextually matched to the content of the page on high quality sites like yours, and this can be a great way to generate an income without compromising your website.
Please email me back if you would be interested in finding out more and I will send you a follow-up email outlining the opportunity in more detail.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Best wishes.

Loving this happy looking, black and white check china, it's soo pretty, specially with sparks of yellow..perfect tray setting! Big hugs,
FABBY
That is so eye catching and cute! Love the bright yellow with the black and white. Fabulous tray and the bird cage bowls are so adorable and different. Love it all! Everyone in the US is moaning about late Spring so don't expect a lot of sympathy about your long hot summer!
Jenna
So sweet, and I agree, your lovely tray certainly makes for a beautiful morning! The black and white with pops of yellow is so charming!
Thanks so much for sharing at Amaze Me Monday!
Blessings,
Cindy
WOW! I ♥♥♥ your gorgeous tray...WOW!
Wow, love the black and white with the pop of yellow -- so cheerful and fresh! Those grandchildren can definitely wear you out, but in a good way!
Ilove, love, love the mix of all the different black and white patterns, and the pop of yellow is perfect. Beautiful tray vignette. Thanks for joining Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
Suzy, I like this colour combo too. I have always liked hounds-tooth and toile. Cute tray too. Thanks for sharing and joining me for tea. Hope you enjoy your quiet time!
Blessings,
Sandi
What a bright and cheerful vignette. Great eye opener :-)

Suzi,
Your morning tray is so inviting. My favorite black and white.....oooooo I just love the yellow, I will have to try that...I always add red. Thanks for the inspiration.

I just love the yellow and B/W combo!
Hello Suzi,
It seems so strange to hear you talk about your long hot summer when we are just entering Spring really.
I am glad you have had a good time with your grands....but they sure can tire you out! lol!
Your tablesetting here is wonderful! I really love those napkins too!
Hugs,
Terri
I love everything on that adorable tray! Black, white and yellow are so cheerful together and your tray does look like sunshine. Those birdcage bowls are adorable!!
How very cheerful is your tray. Hopefully, you can enjoy it in bed as you are reading a good book. Sounds like a bit of rest and relaxation would be welcome after babysitting.
I love everything about your tray. The colors are so pretty and fresh. So glad you joined us this week on Transformed Tuesday. I'm a new follower.
Hugs,
Peggy~PJH Designs
I love the black and white tablescape and dishes! I am a new follower from southern charm! I would love for you to stop by and hopefully follow me back! Have a great day, Nicole
Hi, Suzi! So you've been babysitting this week, huh? I'll bet you ARE worn out! That can be fun, but it can take every bit of energy you have in your body, too!!!! :-)
Your breakfast tray is beautiful! I have to look up the shillings:dollars ratio, but the tray price sounds like a bargain. It's gorgeous! I love the way you mixed the patterns on the tray. Very pretty! The yellow really pops against the neutral black & white! The bowl is just SO cute with the little bird cage!!!
Stay cool! Or just send some of that warmth to us here in the Midwest, U.S.A. It's VERY cold here (about 35 degrees F), and very rainy. It's SUPPOSED to be Spring with temperatures somewhere in the 60s, but that's not happening!!! :-(
Have a great weekend!
Suzy, can you air mail this overnight so I can wake up to this breakfast tray tomorrow morning? This CC girl is swooning over this lovely black and white trayscape. Those dishes are darling! Big smiles here! ~ Sarah
