A Library Tea

Posted by Mr Wong at 5:25 PM

Hello,

  We had a cool damp day today so it was a great day to have my friend Janice(above) come over for a fireside tea in our little library.

Unfortunately, because it was a dull day I didn't have good light for taking pictures as I don't like to use my flash. Janice waited patiently for me to take a few photos before I served her tea!

I used these Spode teacups that I bought on a trip to Maine last year.

We enjoyed oatmeal scones with whipped cream and Lemon Curd(thanks Sandi) .

I have a few Spode plates that match the teacups.

The teapot was a gift from my husband a couple of years ago.

I love the coziness of the wood burning fireplace on a cooler day.

I took these shots on a sunny day a few weeks ago.

This is a handmade lace tablecloth -lots of work!

Janice and I had a lovely visit and didn't mind a bit that outdoors it was wet and windy as we snuggled up to the fireplace with out tea!
 I still have some scones  if you would like to curl up with a cup of tea by the fire.

I am joining Between Naps on the Porch  for Tablescape Thursday again.

Take care,
Carolyn
