Afternoon Tea

Got together with some old work friends for afternoon tea. We had a great time catching up. We exchanged some new gossop as well. We all had to bring something old/antique that we thought was precious. I brought along a tablecloth that was made by my grandmother for my mother's 21st. It was white linen with delicate tatting around the edges. Very precious to me. There was a variety other other things at the afternoon tea such as a school report dating back to late 18th century. An exquite gown brought here from Paris during the early 1900's, a bible handed down through generations. and much more. Tea was served in delicate china and we ate petite 4's. An exquite afternoon.

Hasn't it been cold?

Hasn't it been cold today? When I woke up the house was surrounded by fog. I had to feed the chooks this morning and my little toes were freezing. As usual it was quite dark but i could see where I left my footprints behind in the grass. At recess time I had to wear my big coat because i was so cold. By the afternoon however it was quite pleasent. I hope we get more rain. Last week's rain was really great don't you think?
