    Y'all, I got everything done except for DS's haircut -- didn't have time for that 'cause the barber shop is in a different part of town and it would've taken too long to get over there. BUT, we did get some much needed shopping squeezed in for him -- black dress shoes and a couple of dress shirts, which he will need for prom this weekend. He's just wearing a suit this year -- no tux. So, a good day! And we'll get the haircut tomorrow -- he definitely needs one!

    Good Morning Dear Friends in Tea. I am declaring today to be a 'Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to the Wonders of Life'.  Open doors are everywhere and blessings abound with each step. If you don't like where you are, move your chair. Get a different perspective and enjoy the new view. Be True. Be Honest. Be Diligent. Smile. Feel free to start over as many times as you need to....and don't second guess yourself. That is one very lovely cup of tea and I highly recommend it. Your very grateful hostess and friend, Mary

    Lavender Tea Cookies

    1 cup unsalted butter
    2/3 cup minus 1 T. superfine sugar
    1 egg, beaten
    1 1/4 cups minus 1 T. self rising flour
    1 T. fresh lavender flowers

    Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugar, add egg and beat well. Stir in flour and flowers. Drop teaspoonfuls on parchment, spacing widely to allow for spread. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until *pale* golden and edges tinge brown. They will be soft until cooled on waxed paper. Store in airtight tin.
    Note: These "biscuits" spread like crazy while baking, but the lavender flavor is so exotic. You can almost taste breath of bees in them. No, they don't taste like soap. Serve them with creamy vanilla ice cream.

    Good Morning Dear Friends in Tea. Todays Tea Party is dedicated to 'Putting your Heart Into It'. Wherever you go, whomever you see, however you spend you time, do it with as much strength, commitment and pleasure as it will hold. The perfect tea for today is "Republic of Tea, Get Heart". I missed my daily cup yesterday and I can tell you for a fact that I felt the lack of it. This is Rooibos tea with Hawthorn leaf, flower and berries, Hibiscus flower, Ginkgo leaf, Bilberry Leaf, Rosehips and Blueberry leaf. It is one very powerful tonic and the taste is exceptionally bright. What I notice most is that when I partake of it, those little off beats of my heart just disappear and I am stronger.

    Dear Grandpa is going to have another visit from Dear Friend [and Hospice Nurse] Darlene as his sufferings are too firmly set for me to weather by myself. She puts on her proffesional nurses hat and goes to work calmly and with such a comfort, that it blesses the entire household. My birthday was filled with challenge and true worry as my dear overshadowed my smile. DH and DS [bless their true hearts] took a hand in things and I was whisked off for a lovely dinner, a bit of a good country ride,  a little shopping and a lovely ice cream cake. It was indeed a miracle and I am grateful for it all.. Please enjoy a good cup of tea anywhere you can and do it with your own unique smile. Your very grateful hostess and friend, Mary

     

    Thank you so much Audrey for taking a moment outside the garage sale doings to send me your wishes.

    Dear Elza, Thank you so much. I know you are having such a lovely cup of lifetime tea and I would love to be right there to share the buzz with you!

    Dear Susie, Thank you so much for the Lavendar Tea Cookie Recipe, I think it would be exceptionally lovely on the tea table.

    With good thoughts and special wishes to share.....your friend, Mary

    Good evening angels,  Where is everyone??????

    Susie,  Thanks for the recipe.  Sounds good.  Are you having good weather  up there?  It was 71 here this morning at 7:00.  I think it got up around 80 something today.  We had a thunderstorm that pushed through.  It looks like it is clearing up for the rest of the afternoon.

    Mary,  I got a new vampire book series started.  It is the Darkwing Chronicles, by Savannah Russe.  Book 1 " Beyond the Pale" is pretty good.  These vampires in her book actually turn into bats,  pretty interesting.  Got book 1 yesterday and have only been reading it at work (ssshhhhhh don't tell) yesterday afternoon and today and I like about 50 pages and I will be through.  I will be back at the book store tomorrow or Saturday to get the next one.

    Well I need to go find something for supper before everyone starts yelling, "I'm hungry".

    Have a great afternoon, evening, and sweet dreams everyone

    Carole

    Carole, our weather is just so-so...we won't be seeing 70s for a week or more :(  80-something sounds wonderful to me! I want to plant flowers!

     

    Waves and hugs to all of you! Mary, I expect to hear that you've been dancing in those green tap shoes, lol!

     

    Love you all!
