The 62nd, Teapot And Tea Things Tuesday; Lovely Sunlight:





Welcome to...


the 62nd,

  Tea Pot and Tea Things Tuesday




Treat your friends as you do your pictures,
and place them in their best light.

Jennie Jerome Churchill


A warm welcome to all. Things are so very busy theses days whereas there is so much  to do with packing, staging and putting our home back on the market once again.., (This blog post is a re-post*).





The sun was shining on that lovely Sunday morning when I awoke. ~ A nice change to be sure!  I decided to take the opportunity to photograph my tea table.  ( These photos were taken several months ago for my previous blog post from the past*).


My tea table is small because our home is staged for selling


A teacup from my mom's collection








Hand made pearl necklace












Antique pearl brooch 






I must retire these items.
The cupcake is a bath bomb.
The chocolate bon bon holds lip loss.
So cute!
We'll be serving scones and marmalade.






























The human spirit is the lamp of the LORD that sheds light on one’s inmost being.




This beautiful plant does well in the hot summer
and adapts to indoors in the autumn



HARALD'S  DWARF  ORANGE  TREE  JAM


METHOD

Wash and clean oranges, chop (remove pits if any)

Weigh oranges and add equal weight of sugar

Place in a large pot (if the fruit is dry add a little water),

Boil rapidly then reduce heat a little (be careful or it will boil over- big sticky mess)

Skim off rising scum

Drop small amount to test on a cold plate until jam gels

Remove from heat and when cooled a little fill,  *prepared jars 


Note!

Always ensure that the jars are clean, preheated and standing on wooden surface during filling.

Allow to stand and cool a little before closing securely.

Our dear felow blogging friends. ~ Life and blogging teaches us well about, caring, consistency and community!

Amid the stress of selling our home, the Spring did have a joyous occassion.  My son's and daughter-in-love's wedding. The weekend was blessed in so many ways for them and all of us that attended. I will celebrate their wedding in my next post. Their colours were gold and silver..,

I do hope you have time to pause for a cup of tea and a wee bite.  Please drop by often I may surprise you you with some news.  I may post a favorite tea from the last year.  If you have a suggestion please let me know.  I miss you all!!




Philippians 1:6


Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.






If you have a moment to linger I invite you to stop in to The Silken Purse 

 to see what our darling hostess, Wanda, has for us to savour.

The more the fun!




We don't want to miss a single teacup or teapot!

  2. It does seem that life is sometimes a whirlwind doesn't it! When my daughter married last October I thought there wasn't enough time in the day - still do, but for very different reasons!
    The best things is that we have our faith to ground us and to carry us through these things in life!
    I hope you have a blessed day,
    Kathy
