I
always have tea at half past three
some days, Husband Jim will join me
And when he does, it's a special tea
So I used a Spode blue transfer ware tea pot
And my Spode Camilla plates, cups and saucers
The tablecloth is one that I use daily,
an estate sale find
The cookies are an orange sugar cookie
From a new cookbook
And they're good.
The orange adds a nice flavor.
Will they replace my regular cut-out cookie?
No, but they are a nice change!
It's a nice respite, when we both can share a pot of tea!
And cookies!
It's Tuesday and I'm sharing my tea with Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage and with Bernideen for Tea in the Garden

I have never had an orange sugar cookie, sounds yummy. It would go good with Constant Comment Tea I imagine.
Now that's what I call a tea for two; sugar cookies and tea in blue transferware! Orange juice sounds like a nice little addition in your cookies. Thank you for joining me for tea and have a wonderful week, Martha.
Blessings,
Sandi
As I write this comment it is after 10 and I have made a pot of tea that The Great Dane and I will share. No cookies at this hours, but we have always had tea at bedtime.
Orange sugar cookies, yum that sounds good! I am visiting from Sandi's Tea Time Tuesday.
Beautiful "Tea" presentation. The addition of the orange sounds delicious.

Martha,
YuMMy!!!
The orange does sound delightful for a cookie.
Love your Blue Spode pattern dishes for Tea.
"Mr. Ed" and I have been enjoying small French Croissants drizzled with honey and warmed in the micro~wave with our Teas this week.
Fondly,

I made orange sugar cookies just a few days ago. They go so wonderfully with tea. Your table is beautiful.
Hi Martha I just had to comment on the tea since I am a lover of blue and white china! I would have loved to join you for tea!
