I had a little tea party, this afternoon at three
Twas very small, three guests in all, I, Myself, and Me
Myself ate up the sandwhiches, while I drank up the tea
Twas also I who ate the pie and passed the cake to me!
It's been really cold here this week and yesterday, for some reason, my feet were freezing. I kept complaining about my feet being cold and Eddie said why didn't I have some hot tea, that it would probably warm me up.
I got to thinking about how I've been trying to get a few of my friends together to go to an authentic British tearoom in our city, but we never seem to be able to get together. Everyone seems to be too busy. So, I thought, "Why not?" I'll just have my own little tea party. I collect teapots and teacups, so I definitely had all of the makings for a nice little afternoon tea. I actually hadn't intended to go to the extent that I did, but when I started making the tea I remembered that I had a nice little teapot that I had bought awhile back, some teacups, and saucers. All of them part of my collection. It's silly to have all of those things and never use them. I had bought some tea from the tea room on a previous visit. When I bought it they told me that they serve it in their dining room.
So, I got everything together in about ten minutes and the above picture is the result. I even had a book to read while I was having tea. Eddie was watching a football game, so he didn't participate, but it was very nice and I enjoyed it immensely.
