Tea Time Tuesday–Spring
It has finally warmed up here in Manitoba, and my mind is filled with thoughts of gardening.
I love to sit in this spot in our bedroom in the warm afternoon sunshine, leafing through a decorating or gardening magazine.
I think I will do just that….with a cup of tea and some lemon tarts in cream cheese pastry.
The cup and saucer are marked “EB” as are many of my pretty china cups. In fact our dinner china is decorated with the same flower bouquet.
The magazine, although Canadian, seems to deal more with warmer climate garden plants..oh, well, I can dream! I received this nice orchid as a gift, and the forsythia are some I forced, from a garden shrub.

what a pretty tea cup. I love the sunrayes in the shape and the lovely green outside. And inside is a wonderful posy. You have a sweet little spot to enjoy tea and gardening magazines. Thank you for sharing.
Best greetings, Johanna
That's a nice friend to send you an orchid, and I can't believe you grew that forsythia. It's one of my favorite shrubs, but we don't really see it here. Wish we did!
Thanks for sharing...

I like your cozy corner for reading and sipping tea.

I am looking forward to some warmer weather here. It's been very cool so far. Fredericton, NB got up to 19 today while we here on the Island only got up to 7. The water which surrounds us keeps us cool a little longer I think. I'm so happy you could join me for tea today and I hope you have a beautiful week.
Blessings,

Pretty, pretty tea cup. There's nothing like bone china!
Your cup and saucer are very pretty as is the orchid.
Hugs, Cindy
I love your china and your flowers, too. Here in Portugal my garden is already full of bloom, which is so nice!
Thanks for visiting.

You have a very comfy spot for relaxing with a cup of tea and some great books or magazines! Love your teacup! Spring is finally here, too!
Hugs, Nancy
I adore that pretty cup and saucer. It would look beautiful with any setting or dish. Mint green is the color of my new/old tea set I just acquired. So fresh and refreshing. Great for spring.
