Ingredients
Directions
Taking time for Tea is very important
but at times it can serve as a metaphor in life.
By that I mean in the upcoming holiday season, I will
be taking "time for tea" with my beautiful child, my wonderful
husband and my amazing family and friends.
I hope YOU take the "time for tea" in whatever
I hope YOU take the "time for tea" in whatever
way, shape or form that means for YOU.
I am excited to see what everyone is bringing for
