Meet Me For Tea In The Garden.

Meet me for tea in the garden.


We'll sip from mismatched rose teacups
And enjoy the sunshine.


(Tee hee...  a grasshopper just jumped in the milk.  
I promise I'll get some fresh before you arrive.)



Joining Martha  and Terri for  Teatime Tuesday

What a lovely tray of tea-themed accessories. Love that teapot cozy!

How beautiful! When I was little my nana made me White Rose tea which is basically 3/4 milk with a little tea to warm it up. I loved it! She then made it for my daughter who still talks about Nana's tea even though she died when my daughter was only 6.

If it is cooler than the 90 degrees here, I will be right over!! Your seating looks beautiful.

Claire said...

Oh wouldn't I love to Gayle.

Mismatched china cups, gorgeous and sitting in your lovely garden enjoying the roses.............

In turn, I could invite you over for a mug of hot chocolate and we'll sit by the heater and watch the sun melt the frost, hehe. Bit of a difference.

Sounds like fun. This is absolutely my kind of tea party! I don't mind the odd insect in the milk either..just adds to the adventure of being in a garden.

What a lovely tea setting - I guess grasshoppers want tea - or milk - too. :-)

Sandy aka Doris the Great said...

I've heard of grasshopper pie but never grasshopper tea! I'll join you anyway. And I love your mismatched teacups.

I'm sorry I'm just getting back to you. Thanks for your comment on my blog a few days ago.

I was in Ohio plus my computer was all messed up. A little stressed!

You have lovely tea items and I bet the tea tastes a lot better of out them then in regular cups!

diane b said...

I would love to. I'm waiting for the day of instant travel.
You should rename your blog Garden of Roses.

Happy@Home said...

I'm on my way. Your setting amongst the rosebushes is so pretty and looks so peaceful. The teacups and tea cozy are so pretty too.

Stella said...

What lovely collection and I am always ready for tea in the garden.

no spring chicken said...

This is so inviting! Just lovely. The grasshopper really isn't to big a deal since if you meet me for tea in my garden we just drink from mismatched hoses!

Blessings, Debbie

koralee said...

Happy weekend. xoxo

The Summer Porch said...

Am I too late for tea? I always show up late not sure what that's all about! ;) Everything is so charming I love it! I even don't mind the grasshopper in the milk or was that the cream?
Have a wonderful weekend,
Hugs Rosemary...XX

Teresa said...

I love mismatched china.
And sunshine.
And roses.
I will certainly take you up on the fresh milk though. Grasshoppers are at the top of my garden hit list!

Have a marvelous weekend,
