Tea on Tuesday



I am actually ON TIME for tea today!!!!

I decided to skip the thrift shop volunteer today, because my son is visiting thru tomorrow. I would rather spend the time with him, even tho he is still asleep at the moment!!

I grabbed a quick cup of tea for the "photo shoot"!!! As soon as I post this, I have to run out and check to see if there are any raspberries left. They are usually a tiny crop, only a couple of pints. I did discover a new group of plants, and I'll see what's left. The blackberries are next to pop out - and those are very prolific. Last year I had pounds of those - I am hoping for the same this season - so I can sell some at the market!

Anyway, this teacup/pot combo is from Pier 1 - but I got a pair of them at the thrift shop for a dollar or so- one for me, one for my daughter. The cute little tray is another thrift shop find ( a set of 3), and the tiny bowl with my blueberry breakfast is one of Richard Busch's Glenfiddich pieces. I love his pottery!!!
The tea is Arizona Green Tea with pomegranate and acai.

The sun is peaking out again, so I am off to pick berries before it rains!!
Be sure to visit, Patty, Kimmie and Nancy for tea, and join us next week, won't you????

    You just made me want tea and berries! Isn't it great to discover that one can get Pier One and World Market goodies at the flea market!
    Love it!

    LOVE that tray, just the perfect color for your arrangement! Holly got her package yesterday...she was SOOoooo excited to get a box in the mail and she loved the apple and lavender wand you were so sweet to include. She will post about it sometime in the next few days. Have a wonderful Independence Day!
