Yesterday I attended a fun event at Holly Cottage Tearoom in Newnan, Georgia. I met Angela of Tea With Friends, Teresa of Southern Touch Catering and Deberah of Everyday Finesse for a two o’clock teatime.
From the left is Teresa, Angela, me and Deberah. We each have a pot of tea with a cute tea cozy. They are available in many fabric choices and are one of the items for sale at the tearoom.
This was not only a teacup exchange event, but also a fundraiser for Coweta Pregnancy Services.
We all enjoyed a well brewed pot of tea, as well as a fresh fruit cup and scone with lemon curd, cream and jam.
It was funny that I had been admiring the mismatched saucer and opened my package to find the same Johnson Brothers pattern “Old British Castles”. It is such a pretty pattern (especially in pink) with over 45 English castles represented on the various pieces. My saucer shows Kenilworth Castle in 1792 with two others represented on the cup. I’ll show you a photo one Teacup Tuesday.
You can see the other lovely cups on Angela's post about our tea.
I had fun reading about this special event on Angela's blog and now to see it here. I would have loved attending such an event. Very special!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun event! Using the tea caddy for serving cream, jam and lemon curd makes an interesting and unique presentation!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing to do. Makes me think of ladies in long gowns and gloves and hats sitting drinking tea.
ReplyDeleteHow fun - Irecognize Angela from photos! And you of course- great you all got together!
