Tea is and has always been an important
part of my life.
part of my life.
My German grandmother always served tea to my English grandfather early every afternoon.
And often I was there.
He especially enjoyed home made grape jelly
on toast with his English Breakfast tea, therefore I did, too.
Nothing fancy, just very simple.
And my grandmother made a big deal about the bubbles in her teacup. This tradition meant money would be coming her way. She would gather them in her spoon, and slurp them, giggling away. We were always amused.
To this day, I try to pour from the pot to
get as many bubbles as I can.

This is where my tea interest began.
And continues today through my times with friends, earlier with my Tea Room, and has already started with my oldest granddaughter, now just three.
Let the Tea Times begin for her.

Here, she is helping me set the table,
