A Christmas Tea Poem

A Cup Of Christmas Tea is one of my very favorite Christmas books.  Most of you have probably heard this poem at one time or another, since it has been around since 1981.  No matter how often I read it, I’m moved to tears every time.

Then in 1999 a wonderful sequel was written called A Memory of Christmas Tea. 

PC151106 There are a few tea theme ornaments that are too large for my little tabletop tea tree.  They hang on our large living room Christmas tree.

I’m planning to do some more baking today and work on preparations for our family Christmas Eve dinner.  My children can’t all be here on the same day, so we have two dinners.  Tomorrow it will be standing rib roast with an English sherry trifle for dessert.  Of course, Christmas Day we will feast on turkey and stuffing, with pecan and pumpkin pies for dessert.
