Tea in My Garden



Come join me for tea in my garden.
A vintage silver tea pot and vintage cup and saucer amidst a 
background of deep ground cover.




It's a beautiful day today ~ low 80's, low humidity and
just a gentle breeze now and then.




We can enjoy vintage linens and ...



Garden flora while we have a nice long chat.  
Thanks for stopping by!

How would you like to go for a walk with Bentley
after we have our tea?

Lots of Love,
Susan and Bentley

    Truly beautiful. Yes, I would like to walk with you and Bentley - anywhere it's not 100 degrees with high humidity :)

    You always pack such delights in short and sweet blogs! This one is very darling - love your cups and linens. Digging all my grandmother's linens and things out of the basement tomorrow as we ready for the yard sale on Saturday. However, my linens will be a blog feature - not for sale! Now, as to your musical selection - LOVE IT!!! Old phonograph big band and I'm floating away to another time and place. Let's take that walk and talk all things old and fashioned!
    Joy!

    I'd love tea and a walk with Bentley. I'd love to sit in the warmth of a summer afternoon in a garden too! We've had no summer weather here yet and have eaten outside only once this rainy summer.

    What a sweet cottage garden you have. I would love tea with you in your garden. Beautiful silver tea pot. Vintage China cups and linens, just make it perfect. How ever do you keep up 4blogs. I have trouble with one. As long as your cool weather holds, a walk in the garden would be lovely with you and Bently

    Low 80's???!?!! I have forgotten what that feels like!!! Here in the Kansas City area, we are sweltering in the triple digits for several days running. Ugh! Glad to know someone out there is able to enjoy a bit of summer outdoors, though! LOVE that teapot. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!
