The season of Joy





Serving Hot Cider drinks, hot chocolate

or a piping hot cup of Tea...



At Christmas time I love to set a pretty table.

Red and White

 I love my red and white china.  I was recently gifted some new pieces by a dear friend . It makes for a festive table any time of the year. But with the Christmas season upon us, isn't it fun to dress your table for the festivities?








Come, sit a spell, and enjoy a cup of tea with me.

There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.  ~Henry James

The Summer of You and Me

 Cover Image: The Summer of You and Me

The Summer of You and Me

Pub Date:     |   

Denise Hunter has written another delightful story. Seabrook Island, South Carolina is the setting of a mystery that leaves everyone pondering. 

Josh and Maggie are best friends. Maggie thinks she has seen her deceased husband at the carnival, and is determined to find him. Josh offers to help with a stranger than life outcome. It turns out to be quite the adventure. 

Without giving away the story, the complicated romance that develops concludes with a surprise ending. Denise Hunter is a master storyteller. Writing well rounded characters, she is able to convey her characters deep feelings and emotions. Publication is in April so you need to put this on your TBR list. 

 I received a complimentary an e-copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Thanksgiving



 

Most of my serving pieces are white, so with a little burst of color to set off the table, we are ready for Thanksgiving!






I love this beautiful Turkey platter that I found at Goodwill.


April Cornell napkins and tablecloth from Kohl's.
Stemware and Soup Tureen from Goodwill. 

We're ready!
