My favorite spot at teatime, or any time.
Setting the table for tea as the
sun streamed in at the end of
a lazy afternoon last week.
Having a friend stop by for tea is
always a pleasure.
Baking something special for tea -
a yummy Apple Prune and Brandy
rustic cake - is enjoyable.
Let me know when you're coming to town.
The kettle will be on the boil -
and tea will be served.
This weekend we're heading south, just a wee bit more
south than where we are! Waiting there will be my
dear friend Vanessa, and her family, who recently
moved. We miss them all so much and have to go see
their new home, catch up on the latest news,
eat and drink together.......and go treasure
hunting of course!

A lovely spot for tea and a yummy looking cake too. I love the cooler temperatures we have been having. Sitting in your gazebo would be a delight.
ReplyDeleteA very lovely tea setting - and the cake looks great. Enjoy your trip and visit with your friend.
ReplyDeleteOh Mary, your teatime in the gazebo sounds and looks just perfect. The cake is the sort of cake I would love with tea. Have a delightful weekend visiting dear friends and seeing their new home.
ReplyDeleteNow where's my plane tickets! What a lovely place to sit, drink tea and eat your delicious cake. Have a wonderful trip xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely setting for tea. I wish I could do things like that but I have not been domesticated.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very attractive gazebo you have. Still loving all your photography.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a safe happy trip.
Hi Mary! Having trouble getting mail to you...explorer won't let me retrieve your addy. janeymac@aol.com
ReplyDeleteAm so loving rereading thru all of your travels!! We are sailors and most of our exploring is done on our sailboat; hence, my curiosity with what kind of ship you travel on!! Thanks for any info..
Now THAT's the way to spend a summer afternoon!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to stop by for tea with you. Your table looks very welcoming for your guests.
ReplyDeleteWe're just back from our trip and I'm catching up with laundry and grocery shopping. And the garden - so many things to take care of. But I'm not stressed about it - little by little.
Hope you enjoyed your visit south!
Immaculate, is all I'm going to say about that. :) Very nice. Bits and pieces of pastry and drink adding onto sumptuous memory. I wish I could build my memories like this, and have an infrastructure to lay it all out on. For now, I'm just going to bask in all these pictures, and just take to the immeasurable appeal of teas. Flavors for every occassion!
