April Sunshine

Welcome My Dear Tea Friends! 

Hurray! The Sun is finally shining! It's actually like a spring day!

Flowers and sunshine - who could ask for anything more beautiful?

Please come inside and sit in a ray of sunshine.

My dear son and sweet daughter in law surprised me at Easter with a bouquet of flowers and they are my favourite colours!  

This is my most treasured Sadler tea set which I bought before Christmas.  It's a very deep, rich pink.

The sunshine creates a welcome glare on the china.  I have missed the sunny spring mornings as we have had so much rain!

The teacup is a "Dijon" Salisbury.  I love its curvy footed gold base. 

Thank you for stopping by today.

Wishing you a ray of sunshine too!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Sweet Tea Friends!

 The table is set and Easter Dinner is quickly approaching. 

The china is Royal Albert's Val d'or.

I am excited to have my grand daughter over with the rest of the family.  An Easter egg hunt is planned for all!

Val d'or is a simple plain white china with gold trim.  (My daughter collects the platinum version -  Chantilly.)

I do hope that you also enjoy time with family and friends too this weekend.

Easter Blessings,

Karen

Hello Sweet Tea Friends

The sun is shining today!  Hurray!

It's been raining so much on the West Coast for the last month and the sunshine is such a welcome sight!

Every Easter Time I bring out my little Easter tree.  My wee grand daughter hasn't been over for some time and I am anxious for her to see my Easter decor.  Hopefully they will come for Easter dinner.

They teacups today are both Aynsley.

The teapot is..... you guessed it,

A Sadler.

I am so anxious to see my cherry blossom tree in bloom and my roses.  It's been a long winter.

I bought the Sadler cream and sugar when I was 16 at a flea market in New Westminster.  That's only 45 years ago.  Lol.  I have always fancied Sadler china!

Love this little teacup spoon.

I brought in the primroses from my front step. 

So cheery on some dreary days.

I hope the sun will stay out a little longer but as I type the sky is starting to darken once again.

Oh well, 

April Showers

Bring May Flowers

I do hope that you see some sunshine sometime today! 

See you next time!
