Happy Tea Party Tuesday!
Boy oh boy do I need a cup of tea.
These past few weeks have been NUTS!
Which inspired these little fall delights for your
Tea Party enjoyment!
Nutty Ham and Cheese
Acorn Shaped
Tea Sandwiches
The pecan brown butter on top (and inside) is DIVINE!
I could eat all 6....and I did.
With a little help from Sophia and James.

| Yummy little acorns! |
Remember the amazing RS Prussia Teapot that
my Mom gave me for my birthday?
Well, a Teapot without a Teacup is like
Thelma without Louise

| This cup did not have a mark on the bottom.....I named her, GLORIOUS! |
Taaaaaa Daaaaaa!
Stunning isn't she?
THANKS MOM!!
This week, I am brewing the most lovely tea called
Evening in Florence.
It is truly one of my all time favorites.
I purchased it from a wonderful Tea Room called
Aprille Showers not to far from my home.
