Teatime for Easter

 The weather couldn't have been more perfect on Easter Sunday.

A most delightful day to share afternoon tea in the garden house.

Now the garden house is sometimes called the tea house

as often we love to take a cup of tea there.

Often we invite friends to join us, but with the situation as it is

it was the three members that live in our house -

my "live-in gardener" husband and our son.

Lovejoy's is 12 blocks from our home and they were delivering tea time for Easter.

At the appointed time the owner of the shop pulled up on his bicycle and delivered a

wonderful bag of goodies. I had him ride his bicycle around and down the alley so he

could see where we would have tea.

Now why didn't I take a picture of his cute bicycle delivery service?

We each choose two sandwich flavors.

There was chicken walnut (2 chose this one), chutney and cheddar cheese,

salmon with cream cheese, ham and cheese, roast beef with horseradish,

coleslaw, lettuce salad,

then a delicious scone with jam and clotted cream,

small lavender shortbread cookies

and one sweet for each of us.  

Each of us chose a different tea.

There was a rooibos with vanilla, a puerh with chocolate nibs, and black currant teas.

My choice was the black currant, but a sip of the puerh was quite good.

I would order that one the next time.

Though our Easter day wasn't the tradition of gathering friends and family

together it was a special day.

There was zoom church in the morning where many of us wore our Easter bonnets.

Teatime in the garden house.

Zoom gathering of tea friends to sip and chat for awhile.

Then skype with our daughter and grandson too.

It was a busy day, but many missed hugs.

Hoping you each had a wonderful Easter.
