CATCH A QUIET MOMENT; The 1st,'Teapot And Tea Things Tuesday', A Shared Meme:

Spring has arrived here, at least on most days! Today the sun is warm and cheery but the wind is still nippy. Too chilly to garden but that extreme freshness gave me lots of pep, making today a great day for Spring cleaning, inside.


So I looked over my list of things to do. It will feel so satisfying to put a check mark beside a few finished projects.  Are you finished yet?


 Let's put in a good morning of finishing some tasks and meet for tea, later.

I will set the table.............

 

The creamer was a lonely piece, maybe in its past life it was a small vase. I pressed it into service today because it brings the colours of the china together. I found a single white sugar, at the thrift store for $.79.

To add height, I used a simple glass pedestal to raise the seashell shaped serving dish.

This unique dish was the base for a wee giftie Mr Handsome brought back from a business trip many years ago. It came from  Crabtree & Evelyn with assorted petite containers of their luxury bath products. 

TOMINAGA ORIGINAL, Japan

Colclough,  Product of RIDGEWAY POTTERIES LTD, England

Phoenix China, T F and SONS LTD, England

Silver Plate, Queen Mary, BIRKS

Heart shaped  dish with floral butter pats

For a special touch, I pressed soft butter into the candy molds and placed in freezer over night. They released easily into the dish.  Ready to spread on warm banana bread, fresh from the oven. 

Next time I will try finely grated orange peel for added flavour and colour.   Remember to keep it, K*I*S*S.  Keeping it Simple and Stylish.  Your style of course.  Any suggestions for another flavour?

I look forward to enjoying a cup of tea with you later this afternoon.  The kettle will be ready.  I so enjoy our visits.  Let's talk about what is lovely and right with God's wondrous creation.

 I always like to hear who dropped by, if you have a moment leave a note.  Have a blessed week!

I am going to drop in on Wednesday Tea for You and Me, Wanda is a wonderful hostess and will have some visual treats to surprise you with. 

Friday I will join Show and Tell Friday with Cindy @ My Romantic Home.  There is always lots to see!

Until next time....
