This will be one of those really quick posts
but I am glad to do one as I have missed out on blogging lately. Today I baked some cookies for my Grand kids so I have some to share with you. I made both Oatmeal Raisin and Peanut Butter Cookies for them.
Right as I was setting up the sky began
to rumble so we will move right along. This has sure been a challenging time
with Corona Virus. Our city of
Columbia has mandatory masks in public places. I have kept busy in the garden and
sewing and baking.
I am sharing one of two fun Victorian spout tea strainers that I purchased
earlier this year. They are sterling
silver and very interesting.
our little dry creek which really does help.
I made a bouquet with flowers from the
garden.
So we have had plenty of hot weather lately. Camping out has really been popular here because of covid. I never was much of a camper - sorry to say!
with you and hope you have a
healthy "rest of your summer"!
Beautiful tea time before the rain. I'm not a great camper for certain.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely bouquet and basket! Your tablecloth,too, is gorgeous. Sorry I wasn't sitting down for tea as I love the cookies. Thank you for such a beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you!

Amazing tea time!!!I miss your wonderful flowers bouquet!Hugs and blessings!
ReplyDeleteOh my, the garden hydrangeas are beautiful and I see disappearing Lilies in
ReplyDeleteyour vase! I used to have dozens of them and the pink is just lovely. I have
never seen tea strainers as you have on the tea pots, but they are so intricate in design. Hard to believe it is August already. Here in Ohio we
have had lots of rain, and that is so unusual for July and August, but nice
we have green grass this year instead of the typical brown by now. The
tea party you present is just a dose of peacefulness. Thank you.
What a pretty tea time even if it was brief. Love your garden and tea table. I just made oatmeal cookies for my grandson and then found out he is now allergic to oats. I can't keep up. Well I will enjoy the cookies, but during Covid time I haven't had enough exercise. My poor body doesn't need more cookies, but I will enjoy them anyway.
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty Bernideen, I love your china and vintage tea-strainer.
ReplyDeleteLucky grandchildren, those cookies look delicious.
Hugs,

I always know where to go to see beauty! Your teatime in the garden is so serene, Bernideen. I've never seen a spout strainer. I'd love an oatmeal raisin cookie before I leave, which are my favorites!
ReplyDeletesimply lovely, Bernideen. I have been missing your gorgeous posts, as I have greatly trimmed my blog list and ignore so many who have comp-slowing ads on them. Yours is like a breath of fresh air and flowers, always flowers and of course TEA! Thank you for the respite from adworld-blogland! Sandi
