An October Tea Time

Welcome Dear Friends to

"An October Tea Time"!

Since this month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month I have chosen some favourite pink tea items to share.

It was so nice to see the National Football League on television tonight support October's Breast Cancer Awareness with their pink towels, pink gloves, pink football cleats and even the referees had a pink whistle!

I am using Royal Albert's Val D'Or Tea white teapot and cream and sugar which so blends so nicely with pink.

You have seen these two favourite pink teacups before.  

My dear friend, Janet (from Elementary School) visited me this week at the cottage and brought me these yummy Ginger Lemon Cream cookies.  I thought pink strawberry wafers would be nice too with your cup of tea or coffee.

Janet also brought me this sweet pink mini pumpkin. Soo perfect! 

My other dear and close friend Debbie also stayed overnight at the cottage and bought me this lovely leather change purse when she was in Italy last week. I love it!!!

I gave each of my beautiful friends a Breast Cancer pin



 and guess what else?  Yes.... you knew it,  a teacup.  A Royal Albert American Beauty teacup for sweet Janet.... to add to her collection 



and a pretty pink rose Royal Albert teacup for sweet Debbie..... that I found at a local consignment shop.
   



We sipped tea and coffee in pretty teacups and it was a memorable time together with my "bestest" old  friends!

Isn't it such fun to visit with friends, to just relax and reminisce and of course, laugh?

Let's support our lady friends with their battle with Breast Cancer this month.

A Patterned Tea Time

Welcome Lovely Friends to:

"A Patterned Tea Time"

Today I am in the mood for roses and  flowered patterns.

This teacup has lovely pattern of pink flowers on the palest of pink background.

It was a garage sale find a few years past.

You have seen this flowery favourite of mine before.

Don't you love pretty patterned linens with  flowered prints? 

And pretty flowered patterned china?

I found this sweet linen stand at an Estate sale.  Everything smells so fresh after drying outside.

         There are still some roses at the cottage.

Sometimes the men just have to join in the fun!

Have a wonderful week!
