Hello everyone,
Summer is off to a wonderful start. June has been a fun month for Sweetheart and I. We have been resting more now that our update is complete. I'm still adding some details to the master bedroom and blogging about my garden.
But I needed a day to retreat from the daily duties and I fixed myself a tray and some tea and toast for my nap time. I slipped into my guest room for some
SELF CARE.
I picked a rose from each of my favorite rose bushes and put them in my angel vase. I found a new tea cup at the antique store and couldn't resist the beautiful green inside the tea cup and saucer.
While at the antique store I found a vintage toast holder. I couldn't resist this sweet tea time toast holder.
My grandma's vintage silver butter knife and tea spoon.
I lathered the cinnamon raisin toast with butter and it's so delicious.
The sweet cup has a beautiful green trim inside the cup and little flowers on the outside.
The sweet flower pattern is also on the inside of the tea cup.
The name of the tea cup is new to me.

A little mosaic to remember my favorite nap time.
Hope you have a great week and thanks for visiting today.
Joyously,
Betty

ReplyDeleteWow - now I want a toast holder and I never even thought there was such a thing. What a fun post and lovely pictures. Super well done here - hope your self time was renewing and refreshing!
ReplyDeleteSelfcare is needed sometimes. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice when we can pamper ourselves and to me, toast and tea is comfort food. I looked high and low for a toast holder, found one and have rarely used it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to Mosaic Monday.
Charming...my toast holder sits atop the piano holding old photos, Your tea time sounds very restful.

What a wonderful way to pamper oneself! Love your roses and the teacup is such a pretty one. The vintage butter knife is lovely too. I have two of my mother's and I must bring them out more often. Charming post! Thank you for joining me for tea and enjoy the July 4th weekend celebration.
