My new shipment of Teas have arrived.................

There is nothing like opening a large

box of freshly shipped pound packages of tea.

The aroma.....................mmmmm. 

I placed an unusually large order with my

favorite wholesaler and it has arrived.

My visitors often say my home smells 

like tea and assorted candles.  

And that is a good thing.

A new one - Blarney Blend

(see side Page - HopeChest Loose Leaf Teas)

                                                                                                                                       It will most certainly be the one we drink with our Annual 

St. Patrick's Tea, tiny shamrocks and all.

See below (next post) for a listing
of my yummy teas and more info
on the "PAGES"on the
right of this blog page.

The Jubilee

It is exciting and enjoyable right now 

to be a tea and England enthusiast.  

My tea friends and I are finding lots of time 

for tea and celebrations.

 

This was taken Saturday at the English Tea Room 

in a small town about an hour away.

I even made my own fascinater to wear (at 2:00 AM).

Some of us are also getting together to 

watch any and all Jubilee coverage, 

much like we did the Royal Wedding a few years ago. 

     

God Bless England.
