Summer afternoon, summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.

There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.

Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.

Pretty tea cups to match your beautiful flowers. Do you have any that match your kitty 😉 ?

There’s probably a big market for those. I would buy some 🙂

The teacups were my grandmother’s. I used to stay with here for part of every summer and we would always have tea in them. Sometimes even with her fancy hats and white gloves. Beautiful memories.

Nice! You have taken good care of them. My sister has all of my grandmother’s tea cups and a beautiful Downton Abbey-esque silver tea service.

That sounds beautiful. I am a fan of Downton Abbey. I know I can’t be nostalgic for a time I didn’t experience, but the Edwardians fascinate me.

I love, love, love Downton Abbey, even though I’m more of a Plantagenet/Tudor girl. I’m basically obsessed with English history. I was following the (unofficial) Dowager Countess on Twitter briefly, but she made a grammar error the other day, so I deleted her. The Dowager Countess does not misspeak!

Lol. She may mis-type though, phones being instruments of torture and all…

No, it wasn’t a typo. I could forgive a phone-induced typo. She referred to an organization as “they” instead of “it.” She’s a fraud.
