Please allow me to share a memory from yesteryear… a Spring Tea with my friends from last year.
Every year in April three of my friends host a tea and brunch for their friends to celebrate spring, and this year the plan was to host it this week.
The date was set and invites ready to go, but as you know the pandemic had other plans, and the event had to be canceled. However since this is the week that we were to have our annual Spring Tea I thought I would share some fond moments and fun pictures from last year’s soiree. Enjoy ☕️🌺🌸.

Last year our Spring Tea was held in my garden, which I was thrilled about as it gave me a chance to show it off.

Once in a blue moon all the stars align and we look around us and have that feeling that nothing could be more sublime, those moments stay with us always. This event was one of those moments, thank you for sharing it with us all!
