Tea and People


“Tea takes time, and tea takes people”

Recently I read that quote in an article,
but not sure who said it.
Such a perfect description of tea,
it really is about the people whether sharing
together or just savoring alone.

Last Sunday, the day after the tea festival,
my "live-in gardener" and I opened our garden
for friends and neighbors (people) to come and sip tea
and nibble on some goodies.

Welcome!
Wishing you all could have been there.
There was plenty of iced tea and lemonade,
along with savory spreads for crackers
and sweets of granola bars, chocolate chip cookies,
herb cookies, brownies, apple bread, scones,
and buttermilk cupcakes.

But best of all was just sitting in the garden
and visiting with special people. 
After all, it is about shared time together
and what could be better than time in the garden?

Happy weekend, dear friends!
