Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡
Happy Thursday! How’s your week been going along……
Dear reader, you must know by now that I love hosting tea parties.
Well….let’s just say, that I have hosted many tea parties in my day. ..*wink
Oh, and of course before I start chatting away..
if you really want to, you can grab a quick cup of tea.
Or, perhaps you just went to a drive by fast-food window…
and now you have a foam cup full of hot tea/coffee with a little plastic lid, a packet of sweetener, and a teabag.
I hope no one is honking at you while you get everything situated.(grin) Or……if you’re in a hurry at home, you can always heat a mug of water in the microwave.
Plunk in your little teabag. You really can do that if you prefer. But, of course I hope you won’t do it all the time.
You see, if you insist on instant, you’ll get your tea, but you’ll miss one of tea’s most beautiful benefits the blessing of slowing down to enjoy it.
You’ll be having your tea but losing the opportunity to stake out an island of calm serenity in the chaotic ocean of daily life.
And, of course I am saying this from my own experience. Of course.
Did you pick out your favorite cup….
Xoxo. …
Marcia
