Checking In

I know it has been a long time that I have not posted nor checked in with my tea loving friends. The tea salon has been very quiet and peaceful. As you can see, it has had some down time.

Even though I have not given any tea these last couple of months, the Salon is well stocked and ready at any giving time.

I have not been on vacation or anything like that. A matter of fact, I have been on a long historic adventure. As you might know, that when I am not working a the hotel or giving teas at my salon, I am volunteering at the historic Hearthside House in Lincoln, RI.
I have taken on the role of the cook in the Mansion.

Much research is needed because I will be presenting hearth cooking, which I have never done before. It is much work and I am enjoying the challenge and knowledge that comes with it. After a long day at the mansion, I can come home, sit back and enjoy a good cup of brewed tea

.
Hope all is well and I will be back having teas soon..

Terrific Tuesday

Fresh flowers always bring the Spring in doors

Today was so wonderful and warm. I sat out on the porch and fell asleep in the sun.
When I woke up, I did not know where I was for a moment.

It was so peaceful.

It felt like a Summer day instead of a Spring day.

I do hope your Tuesday was as terrific as mine.

January is our time to make good on all those brave New Year’s resolutions that we made at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Day! Many of us have started dieting, but as much as we may want to avoid it, good dieting needs to be balanced by proper physical exercise. To properly sustain our body and mind (remember the expression “sound body, sound mind?”) we need to engage in some form of regular physical activity. (A word of caution: always consult your physician before commencing any exercise regimen.)
