What's In Season - June

_

My sister and two nieces are flying into town tomorrow - for two weeks (yea!!!). I'm so excited. I'm preparing for our annual Mid Summers Party (very Victorian) this coming Sunday. Everyone must indulge me and wear something festive - as fairies, elves and magic rule the evening. I usually make a traditional Swedish meal - which my kids love. There will also be music and dancing under the stars. I can't wait!!
