After a hectic last week I decided to take a little time and enjoy a cup of tea.
As you can see, it is a bright sunny day here. This little cupboard holds small watering cans.
The top three are white and the bottom one is a chintz pattern...
Whenever I get a chance I so enjoy taking a little time away from work, chores and gardening to sit
by a sunny window and have a cup of tea...
And a few strawberries...
They are enormous! And so very sweet and delicious...
I also made some home-made biscuits this morning. I happen to love these simple biscuits
and they go perfectly with strawberry preserves or a bit of lavender honey...
I always love having a book or catalogue handy to browse through, don't you? There is just something
so relaxing about having tea and enjoying a lovely book or magazine.
June is the month of roses so I picked a small bouquet for the table. I even included
Would you like to join me for a cup of tea? I have a place all set for you...
I hope you are all having a wonderful week and are able to take a few minutes to relax.

OH!! Such a lovely tea!
Thank you so much for inviting me to join you - everything is just perfect: the tea, the biscuits, the berries, the awesome pretty clover and thistle china...and most of all YOU.
Just lovely, thank you very much!
Would certainly love to join you for a cup of tea...or two...!!!! But as I´m in good old Germany at the moment...I´ll be with you in my thoughts.
Many greetings, karin
Oh- And what time did you say was Tea Time? Your photos are all just gorgeous- Blessings- xo Diana
Your scones are baked to perfection, just the right size. I will have two please. What a beautiful setting with the lace curtains and the whole idea of it all is just beautiful.
Many thanks

Yes, please! So pretty.
So hoping that we get
a chance to have tea together,
some day. Since my daughter's
top college choices are all
in So Cal, perhaps it will be
in the cards?
Happy Wednesday,

I would love to have a cup of tea with you and I love biscuits too.
Your china is so pretty and I love the quilted table cover also.
I am so pleased your granddaughter enjoyed a blog visit with me.
Take care,
Carolyn
Carolyn, my goddaughter just called to tell me she's looking at your blog again today. She is convinced that Anne of Green Gables is living at your house and enjoying your garden.
There's always time for tea. Looks like a lovely spread :)
Suzanne, we will definitely make that happen. It will be great fun.
I would love to join you for tea Susan but first I would have to get on the same coast....;) Your roses are still stunning even if they do have a little age on them. My roses are getting close to opening, very excited.
Enjoy your weekend!

What a lovely table setting.Such a beautiful tea set!
Susan~ I would love to join you for a cup of tea! What a wonderful spot to sit & sip with that beautiful light filtering in on your rose covered table! I love your sweet little tea set and I always sit down with a magazine or catalogue :)
elegant, sweet, and homey. how charming you make all look and sound! and i can see that you're going to have many guests for your next tea :-)...i, also, would like to join you.
you added such a touch of warmth and hospitality to this setting. i would love to set a small table in the window of our antique booth that has this feeling, because i want people to feel welcome and at home when they are there...like they are at a friend's house. you're making me look at your details and ponder how to make people feel the way you made me feel.
thank you for sharing your rest.
blessings,

Beautiful roses and tea sets! I love the dainty roses on the teapot, sugar and creamer and on the cup and saucer set! Your cupboard in the background is adorable- love the watering cans!! The strawberries and biscuits look so good! Lovely presentation!
What a beautiful setting! I wish I could sit and chat awhile with you. I'd be sure and have one of those biscuits...they look delicious.
Happy Weekend to you!
What a pretty place to enjoy tea! I love your little cupboard with the watering cans...everything is so pretty! I should probably paint the strawberries in the little compote. ;P
Thank you for the sweet visit. I adore company and my welcome mat is always out. Your tea set is splendid and those scones look so good. I guess I better go have some breakfast, Connie :)

Hi Susan,
What a lovely tea you gave! I enjoyed it so much. Your teaset is so pretty and goes so well with the tablecovering. If you like come on over to my blog and have tea with me! Happy weekend.

I love your little white cupboard. Fun to change up now and again, I'm sure. Deb
What a sweet table setting. I love that little lamb!
Me again. I just read your comment on my blog and I had to pop back to ask you to post about your beloved cat that you lost recently. I would love to hear all about her/him. Your tea biscuits look so good and I, along with others I'm sure, would love the recipe. Thanks for dropping by. Deb
What a beautiful tea set you have on the table! And your bisquits look really good too! So nice that you came by! Have a great first week of June!
It's late, but I'd still love to sit a while for a cup of tea and a biscuit. The pretty rosebud china is perfect for a sunny day at the end of June!
love tea sets & tea cookies! I didn't realize June is roses month. I just visited the Berkeley Rose Garden in San Francisco...soo adorable! My fave is the climbing Eden.
It all looks so delish, and pretty, and welcome!

Oh how lovely! My grandchildren and I do have fun with childrens tea parties and their cute kids toy tea sets. But I also enjoy a delightful tea party with them with a real set. And wouldn't it be delightful with this gorgeous rose tea set! Thank you for a lovely visit for Pink Saturday.
A very breathtaking post. You have such a beautiful style Susan. Great eye for detail. I wouldn't leave your table. Seriously! :)
Hope your keeping well these days I am so behind the eight ball. :)
