Peace! Love! Joy!


T he wind is mischievously blowing the fluffy flakes of snow about this afternoon. Hither and yon like a game of tag they float gently almost settling on the ground only to be swept up by a jovial gust of wind to touch the top of a tree. Up and down, around and around they go to eventually settle with their friends who have been sidelined on the ground.



   
This playfulness reminds me of the child-like awe that I sometimes struggle to bring to this season of joy. You may have some memories in the distant past that some how take on a new sting, or be missing a loved, this time of year, too. Then now would be a good time to sit with a cuppa of your favorite tea, hot chocolate or latte and share the memories and the truths that you know in your heart and pause to savour them, nuture them lovingly like a child, so they will grow and heal that corner of your heart.

Please feel welcome to join the party at silkenpurse.blogspot.com for "Wednesday Tea for Me and Thee," and bring a friend. The more the joy!!



Isaiah 66:13    As a mother comforts her child,    so will I comfort you;


Luke 2:10     But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.

My Pleasure to Meet You


My Pleasure to Meet You!


I am so glad to sit a spell with a fragrant cup of tea. I have missed my writing time the last few weeks, which surprises me, since this is very new to me. Once time permits I will be more diligent to post on a consistant basis and to drop in on you as well. What surprises me even more and encourages me more than I can say is to have comments from such wonderful, talented bloggers.

I am thankful to my dear friend, Silken Purse, from "Tuesday Tea for Two" and "Wednesday Tea for Me and Thee ", for her patient encouraging words that have given me the confidence to try to blog. A true friend, indeed. I know you enjoy her creativity as much as I do!

I hope you enjoy the couple of pictures I have taken and forgive my quick retreat as things need to be tended to. I am going to be testing a couple of recipes soon and will let you know the results.

I look forward to getting to know you better. Do drop in again!


Ready and waiting...



A little angel dropped in to
wish you Merry Christmas!
