Everyone enjoys the decadence and distinction of an afternoon tea in our culture of speed and efficiency. Perhaps that explains the popularity of the tea class I teach a few times a year at our local cake decorating/candy making/baking specialty store.

There's so much I'd love to share about the joys of taking tea, but desire as I may to continue to elegantly sip and savor in quietude, the reality of my Monday is found in homeschooling, laundry, cleaning, cooking, and snuggling with four rambunctious boys! Contentment with the "must-dos" makes the "get-tos" just that much sweeter doesn't it? Have a wonderfully distinctive day whatever you have on your plate...
