Happy Easter.


Well its Easter weekend and we have snow, fresh snow too!  

Last weekend, we went up into the Dales, to take some pretty photos, but didn't really make it past  our favourite Pub, that serves Real Ale.  The roaring log fire was just too inviting!
We have had snow falling all week and I love the Photos taken by Andy Beck.  He is a local Photographer and has taken some amazing shots of the snow.  This is one of his.

Put the Kettle on, it's time for Tea!







Jubilee Tea








I love Afternoon Tea.

When done correctly, its a fabulous way to spend an Afternoon.


China is important, matching or a pretty mismatch is fine, just so long as it's Vintage.
Tuscan Coffee set.
Floral china to celebrate Mother's Day
Pretty Rosebud china
Tea in the Garden
A table laid with starched linen, vintage china, gleaming silver, sparkling glass and cake stands groaning with dainty sandwiches, delicate pastries, scones and cake, looks so inviting.
