Whenever we go away, there are always plants that need watering.
Friend Priscilla usually does this chore for me
And winter watering is easier than spring and summer watering
for it's only the inside plants.
Priscilla came over last week
to get to know Doogie a bit better
for he sometimes can be standoffish
And we wanted them to be friend.
And whenver anyone comes over,
the tea kettle goes on
A cream tea in the breakfast room
Fall mums in an antique blue and white pitcher
A Spode tea pot
And a crochet tablecloth
And . . .
an ivy topiary
Not mine
But a gift for Priscilla
Tea and freshly baked scones
strawberry jam
and real Devonshire cream
We visited and munched and sipped
It was a lovely afternoon
Doogie even begged a treat form Priscilla
I think that they may be "best buds" now!
Dolly was her usual, "please pet me" self.
It's Tuesday and I'm joining Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage for Tea Time Tuesday and Marty at A Stroll Thru Life for Inspire Me Tuesday

Lovely, lovely, tea setting.
There is nothing nicer than a cup of tea with a friend, and tea at Linderhof always looks so yummy!
Lovely tea ... always better with a friend ... glad all went well!
Cozy tea setting, Martha. You know I love your blue and white and scones with jam and cream, yum! Your topiary makes a beautiful gift for your friend. Wish I could join you too. Thank you for coming to tea and enjoy your day.
Blessings,
