Tea Time Tuesday - Fortnum & Mason Goodies

Today is Tuesday, and I am going to share a special gift I received this week with you.  My dear friend Monika traveled to England this summer and brought me back some wonderful tea treats!

Monika was able to visit Fortnum & Mason and was kind enough to think of me.  Tonight I will be drinking my new tea with a thankful heart. Isn't the shopping bag lovely, too? I always bring my own bags to the market, so this is something that will get a lot of use (well, maybe -  it is too pretty to carry groceries in!).

I have never tried Smoky Earl Grey, so this will be a treat!

Today I am sharing tea at:

Hope you have a tea-riffic day!

WOYWW #260 - No, She isn't writing the Declaration of Independence!

Hi! I have really come to enjoy Wednesdays for it is the day we all share what is on our work desks.  Last week I was away on vacation and unable to hop around and check out what each of you was up to, and so I am anxious to do that this week.

My husband and I were in Colonial Williamsburg, VA for 5 days.  It is one of my favorite places to visit. The beauty, the history, yummy food and wonderful people.  I also love the slower pace compared to NYC. I love to recharge my battery, so to speak.

My desk is covered with my bounty that I picked up in Virginia. You may even spot a quill pen and ink well my husband picked me up after we attended a demonstration of how they were used.  Lots of penmanship books, packs of amazing linen paper, and I even kept the wrapping off a book as it was a copy of an old newspaper.  Too cool to toss.  Not sure what I will do with it.

Thank you to Julia for this wonderful desk hopping fun.  If you haven't joined in yet, why not visit Julia's blog and see what this is all about. I can tell you that you will have a blast!

Until next time!
