A Friend For Tea

Friend Janet called and said she was coming to

Fort Scott,

"Stop by for tea", said I

I had my last bag of local blueberries in the freezer

and with them I made blueberry muffins

Perfect for a very warm November tea

The sun created shadows on the table in the breakfast room

The muffins.   I like to top them with a sprinkle of sugar

for a nice crunch.

My "good" transfer ware tea set --

Spode Camilla

It's been such a warm October and November

that we were able to have garden roses on the table!

We nibbled on muffins,

sipped tea and visited

And she left me some of the suet that she came here for.

And promised the most perfect recipe for plum pudding.
