3rd teacup tuesday...

3rd teacup tuesday
for me this year~

here's a cutey
to share with you today


i'll probably choose my fave tea
'the Earl's Garden'
from davidstea:
'When he wasn’t in China discovering secret tea recipes,
Britain’s second Earl Grey lived at Howick Hall in England,
just like his ancestors had done since 1319.
And also like his ancestors,
he was a keen gardener and outdoorsman.
This tea would no doubt have suited him' ~


black tea with bergamot
highlighted by
strawberries, raspberries and
essence of black currant
mmmmm...
the aroma is intoxicating,
the savouring divine!


isn't she darling?
entirely feminine
and
a shabby beauty !
in colouring and roses...


"Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful,
or believe to be beautiful."
William Morris ~
British designer, poet, craftsman
1834-1896

    I have my tea cup on the counter with a tea picked out. Bought white macadamia nut cookies. One for me two for Don and at around 3 I plan on having some quiet time. Thanks for the inspiration to take time out for tea.

    That is a beautiful teacup. The flowers are pretty and what lovely shape and texture it has. I've never tried Earl's Garden tea - it looks delicious.
