Tea Talk

As spring is in full swing and summer is about to start, I think it's time for a Garden Tea Party. An outdoor tea party with good friends is a wonderful way to celebrate the start of a beautiful summer season.

It's a time to enjoy each other's company, laugh, and celebrate friendship. I...

An example of a tradition is carving pumpkins at Halloween, eating turkey on Thanksgiving, putting up a tree on Christmas, dying colorful eggs at Easter, and maybe even dressing up your dog in a silly costume with pink bunny ears ― Sophie was a good sport.
