Cup of Tea and a Mystery

Today I am joining Rhondi over at Rose Colored Glasses for her second Tea Party Tuesday. I love a cup of tea and often have a cup or two each morning. Come join me in a cozy corner of my cottage. I am having a cup of tea and enjoying a good book.

I love to read. You may often find me re-reading the classics, or a current notable. Sometimes there is just nothing better than a cozy mystery. I have read a few of Laura Child's mysteries. Her Tea Shop Mysteries are light and fun, perfect reading on a rainy afternoon with a cup of tea.


I hope that you enjoyed my little bit of self indulgence. Please stop by Rhondi's beautiful blog and visit all of the Tuesday Tea Party participants. Until next time, Bentley and I will be snuggled up on the sofa. I'll be enjoying my cup of tea and my book, while Bentley will be doing what he does best - cuddling!

Love,
Susan and Bentley

  1. I love Laura Childs, too -- she has a new one out this week! And there is nothing better with tea than a tea mystery. Love your china as well!

  4. Hi Susan
    I am so glad you joined the tea party! I've read a couple of books by Laura Childs and enjoyed them too. That is a nice cozy spot you have to enjoy a cup of tea.
    Hugs, Rhondi

  6. Susan,
    Thanks for the note. Looks like we could be sisters, our interests are very much alike! I love old movies and collect on Carole Lombard. I have done some deocrating, other than my own homes. Not too much call for it where I live, but I do think I would love to do it as a careet. I will be back often to visit.
    Best,
    Robin

    Happy Cuddling!

  11. I've never read any of those books but think I may have to pick one up. You have a pretty spot for tea sipping and reading.

  13. I'll have to look up that book. I'm always looking for interesting reads for our book club, and we have not done a mystery yet. Stop by my blog if you have a minute, I'm doing a little giveaway.

  15. If you have a little list of some favorite books that you would like to share with me, I'd appreciate it! I will be picking next months book. (there are 4 of us and we take turns, so three times I year I pick the book.)

  16. Nothing more delightful than a good book, a furry companion to snuggle with, and a hot beverage in a cozy spot. Perfection!
