Today I arose from my bed while it was still dark. The very first morning I managed to get out of my bed before seven o'clock since the time change. Despite my silent protest, this bi-annual event continues to throw off my rhythm seeming to askew it a wee bit and it actually takes me a couple of weeks to get it back on track. How about you?
Today I pick up the tree limbs, branches, and sticks blanketing the areas of my yard from all the winds of late.
And with a little foot shovel I dug up the copious supply of wild onions that have popped up all through my flower garden and around the hydrangea bushes. It was just as someone came along and planted them! It is approaching the time to plant soon and any prepping such as this helps.
I hosted a Tea for four friends this past Saturday afternoon.
Grace, truth and beauty feeds a soul of any age, I know this full well. These ladies were part of a prayer group reaching back thirty years until two of us moved away.

Beautiful, and gentile. My DIL just had a birthday tea party for 17 little girls. andrea
The time change messes with me too; it lasts about a week.
You got a lot done outside!
Your tea party looks beautiful and I'm sure that time together was a blessing for all!
What a gorgeous table setting! I love afternoon tea. I am so glad you could enjoy an afternoon with good friends. Happy first day of Spring!
Hi again...another comment from me on this beautiful post. Have you ever bought Tea Time magazine? I have an old copy of Tea Pleasures (2017) and a copy of Tea Delights (2019) that says it used to be called Tea Pleasures. I bought these at that time in Lowe's. I could only find Tea Time Magazine online through Hoffman Media and I wonder if that is the same magazine under a new name. That company does some other magazines. The two older ones I have are so nice and the recipes are good too. andrea
I love your tablecloth and everything on it! It sounds like a very blessed event. What treasures friends are.
Andrea, I have old magazines of Tea Time that I absolutely can not discard. I even pulled them out for suggestions for this tea and did use a few of the recipes I found there. Hoffman Media is amazing with that they offer. They publish several magazines and then some special editions too. I will not throw them away and I can not keep but so many magazines. I call them eye candy, pure pleasure!
thanks! I did subscribe so I'm glad to hear it's a good publishing company, etc! You're right, they are too good to throw out. I'm going to pass on the two older ones I have to a DIL. thanks, again, andrea
