NEW! Tea & Toast On Tuesdays





When I think of tea and toast I feel all warm and cosy and snuggly. Don’t you?
I want to go and grab my favourite tea cup, pour myself a nice hot cup of Twining's Irish Breakfast and make myself some hot, buttery raison toast or freshly baked sourdough drizzled with honey. Then I want to place it all on a lovely little tray for one and wander on into the lounge room where a nice big comfy arm chair awaits me. My favourite nesty magazine would be sitting right there at my fingertips ready to be perused at leisure while  I enjoy my delicious tea and toast in a quiet retreaty bliss. My laptop would also be close by ready to surf some feathery and nesty eye candy. No one would be needing me for the next hour or so. Ahhhh……heavenly.
Wouldn’t it be lovely to have tea and toast like this, together, once a week? Just you and me and a bunch of lovely inspirational feathery and nesty things to drool all over. We could go on a vintage tour of treasures and nostalgia. Or maybe we could check out the prettiest table settings around. Perhaps we’d feel like meandering through someone else’s perfectly manicured garden or, better still, a wild and rustic one, over grown with time and childhoods’ spent.
So I’m wondering, if on Tuesdays, you’d like to sit with me awhile, with some tea and toast, in a comfy hangout and ponder all things feathery and nesty and homey and lovely? Just for a little moment or two while we nibble and sip and dream together. What do you think?
Come on, grab your cuppa and pull up a comfy chair. Let’s get ready for Tea & Toast on Tuesdays.
So I thought I’d start by saturating us in all the loveliness that can be found in the whole ritual of tea and toast  because, after all, we’ll be drooling whilst sipping tea and nibbling toast!
Firstly, I think it’s only fitting that we use our most treasured mug or cup and saucer for our little bit of special time. Which one would you choose?

Have you chosen? OK, now let’s grab some tea. Where do you keep yours?
What sort of tea would you like?
Now, do you like one lump or two?
And what about your toast? Do you like it with honey?

or jam?

Or perhaps you like bacon?
or eggs with yours?
How about raison?
Or cinnamon and sugar?
Maybe you’re needing a little extra goodness today and it’s a cupcake you’ll nibble on instead of toast – just this once.
Now, we’ve got our delicacies sorted,the tea’s poured and we’re ready to unwind. All we need now is a comfy spot to sit. Which one do you want? An armchair maybe?

Or perhaps you’d rather sit in the garden?

So are you comfy? Are you ready for Tea & Toast on Tuesdays?
I know I am.
