Drawing the Qualities of a Woman
If you want to get the
Best from a woman,
Best from a woman,
Treat her as you would
Treat fine tea.
House her well.
Appreciate her delicate properties.
Put her to your lips often and
Savour her enhancing qualities.
~Susan Patterson (Earlene Grey)
Dear Friends,
May your weekend be blessed.
If you are a mother may you be treated kindly.
For all here, breathe and savour each and every day.
Stop a moment, sip a cup of the good tea, and nibble on something sweet.
Cookies in the French teacup are French Sables with lilac blossoms.
Happy weekend, dear friends!
Such a beautiful photograph! Happy Mother's Day! Susan
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful cup and those biscuits are exquisite. A joy to visit.

ReplyDeletehow strong she is until you put her in hot
water"...Eleanor Roosevelt..!
All men should heed those words! Love them.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cup and saucer - perfect with such French cookies.
Hoping your Mother's Day is a good one dear. I will head over to my daughter Kim's this afternoon for a little social distancing in her garden - with snacks and a glass of wine of course! We are taking her two Knockout rose bushes to plant- one red one pink - as she is starting to enjoy being a gardener at long last! She ventured away from her house yesterday for the first time to grocery shop - after being locked down for 9 weeks! She works from home thankfully so still makes a paycheck!
Happy day - Mary x
Thank you for this sweetness, Marilyn! LOVE that teacup/cookies image, too! I love the thought of lilac cookies! :))) ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteHope your Mother's Day was special - hugged with love!
ReplyDeleteMarilyn, I love this verse about the qualities of a woman. And that tea cup with the gold rim is gorgeous. The French tea cookies look tasty. I could really use a nice hot cup of tea right now, as I just had a move from northern Calif. to southern Calif. to be close to my daughter. : )
