There are few hours in life more agreeable

than the hour dedicated

to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.

this looks so inviting! That green tetsubin is so fine. I need to break out my teas once more.

[Elizabeth]

I accept!

That butterfly?! That, in green, was what was on the lovely teapot I bought in Chinatown and gave as a gift. I am reminded how much I loved it.

kathryn ~ once i had high tea at the ritz in london. it was a dream come true.

kelly ~ that's okay because gluten free brownies are where it's at!

brooke ~ what kind of teas are you drinking these days? i am loving so many teas from teavana.

elizabeth ~ it does sound fetching. maybe you need another one to look at and admire even if you don't drink tea. ;)

Afternoon tea is definitely a highlight of my weekday. There is something about the ritual of that is loving and calming.
