Tuesday Tea Time- Oct 7, 2013

Time for tea time again! 
007
Today our sweet treat is baked apples. Our nephew gave us some of his home grown harvest, which we will enjoy in many recipes. We will use my thrift store crystal sherbet.
009
I saw this simple idea for a table decoration on Pinterest, Just one large hydrangea bloom, stem cut short, and a little white pumpkin. I think it looks so cute.
003
The teapot is Godinger and the cups and saucers are Gold Chantilly by Royal Worcester.
005
A friend brought back a pure silk runner from China as a thank you for filling in for her at her work. Photos don’t do it justice…the lustre and varying highlights are lovely.

I hope you are all enjoying the lovely autumn weather. It’s a beautiful day in Manitoba!

I haven't baked apples in such a long time. Now I'll be craving them until I do bake some. lol. Your tea today is just lovely, Millie. I love that teapot. It's such a pretty shape and I always enjoy seeing white on white. Beautiful teacups too. Your friend gifted you with a gorgeous scarf and your little pumpkin centered in the hydrangea is just darling! Thank you so much for joining me for tea and have a wonderful week.

Blessings,
Sandi

I haven't baked apples since I did for my g'girls around 3 years ago! I'm trying it for my mother's lunch here at home, this coming Wednesday. I love your tea table setting with the pretty teacups and the teapot is gorgeous! Have a happy week.

Very pretty, Millie. Your cups and saucers are very elegant looking with the gold on them. The centrepiece is a great idea! I never liked baked apples for some reason but then again I haven't tried them since I was about 10 years old. Maybe I would enjoy one these days. Have a great week. Pamela

Victoria…and Me

Image
To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel? On this spring day, I am joining in with : Celebrate Spring http://blissfulrhythm.blogspot.com/ Mary's Mosaic Monday, on whose blog you will see some lovely snowdrops: http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/2011/03/mosaic-monday-snowdrops.html Also,   Sandi is having a special tea party today, so be sure to go over there and enjoy her lovely blog
