Tea in the middle of August

well another not so fancy tea time tuesday for me, feeling abit moody and uninspired (blame it on PMS) and lazy to make anything other than put a kettle on and drink tea. Browsing the Country Tea Parties book (see previous post) and not much else, really.



and since i saw lots of my fellow tea party bloggers showing their collection of lovely roosters' teacups/vignette/decorations, i decided to use one as well for my tea time, bought the 4 cups and saucers from charity shops awhile back, cant remember the price anymore but i'm sure it's under £5 for the lot and it's by Johnson Bros.


i've been craving for chocolates these days,so i spoilt myself with Ferrero rocher while drinking English Breakfast tea. I kinda like the saucer as it has a cute design on it so took a pic of it to show you.


that's all from me, Have a lovely Tea Time Tuesday!

  5. Yummy Chocolate, it is always a good answer to a quick 'pick me up'. I hope your blues will start to fade, I have been a bit down lately, think the cloudy weather doesn't help much. Enjoy your cups of tea though. I really like your saucer..so cute :)

  10. Ah, yes, the pms thing. Chocolate is, I believe, the correct remedy!

    Your charity shop cups and saucers are so pretty. I love the country side on the plates too.
    Thank you so much for sharing with us today.

  12. Mmmm...mmm..tea and Ferrero Rochers, any woman would so enjoy that pampering. Don't worry about not being inspired lately, Susan...it happens, and you are doing exactly what you should do~relax and go with the moment.

    I know creating is so enjoyable and makes the heart and soul sing, but sometimes we need a bit of calm and rest in our lives. I've been thinking that perhaps a glum or lazy feeling, and yes, even PMS is our psyches way of telling us what our body and soul need, a little rest.

    So don't worry, but rather enjoy the days of lounging around. Drink your tea from your adorable, cheerful rooster cups, eat some chocolate, leisurely browse through your Country Tea Parties book, dream of your sewing machine, and even take an occasional nap. Soon enough you will be refreshed to get back in the swing of creating.

    Wow, maybe I'll do some of that today on my day off - COL..

    Big hug,
    Marianne xx
