The Joy in Tea Talk



Strange how a teapot can represent at the same time the
 comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company.
~~Author Unknown~~

I'm having...Hot Chocolate on this morning after a full moon.

My teacup...is nothing special but it certainly holds the hot chocolate well!


I'm feeling... embarrassed still...I missed a luncheon date yesterday with a dear friend and I have to excuse except that I was so absorbed in what I was doing that I didn't even check the time.  What is truly embarrassing is that I didn't realize it until 4:00 p.m.

On my mind...making sure I am checking my calendar 1st think in the morning so that what happened yesterday doesn't happen again!!!!!!  This lady is a dear friend and that is what makes it so painful!

Please join Ruth at Tea Talk today.

Today I also join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.



This day has the potential of being just as grand as this rose.
 I must be open to it!

Thanks be to God!!!

Picture Puzzle Day


There is a garden in every childhood, an enchanted place where colors are brighter, the air softer, and the morning more fragrant than ever again~~Elizabeth Lawrence~~
~~~*~~~

Brought this out of the closet, dusted it off and thought we'd play today.  I remember as a child, when it was too hot or too cold to play outside we would gather at a friends house and work on a jigsaw puzzle.  Ours was always in the basement on a card table and when it was finished there was always another to begin.  We'd also exchange and share puzzles.  So today sit down at my card table and lets just relax and  PLAY!

The Joy In Tea Talk


There is a great deal of poetry and
 fine sentiment in a chest of tea. 
 ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, Letters and Social Aims~

I'm having...English Breakfast tea on this brisk morning.

My teacup...Have packed up my Halloween mug and am back to the one that is sure to tell everyone who I am.




I'm feeling... refreshed.  It's been a good week and we've had some glorious weather!!!  But will start anticipating a "change in the weather."

On my mind...Simply preparing for today.

Please join Ruth at Tea Talk today.
