Tea on the Patio

   This is my first attempt at a post.  I recently discovered Bernideen's Tea Blog and was thrilled to           discover the world of blogging and a place to share my love of all things tea.   My photos are not staged for photo shoots but are candid shots from a series of teas that I have hosted.   I have collected teapots, tea cups, tea balls, linens and dishes for years.    A couple years ago a friend moved into my neighborhood and my first tea was born as a way to introduce her to her new neighbors.  We had such a great time that the teas have contined for the six of us.  Each tea has a different theme and I pull dishes from every room in my house complete my theme.
