A CRINOLINE LADY AT THE PARIS STREET MARKET for "Tea In The Garden"



For years I have wanted to attend an outdoor artisan and vintage market know as "A Paris Street Market" in the Littleton area of Denver.



  Located in a lovely shopping area, this market is in it's 15th year.  I finally got to go Saturday because I am officially RETIRED!  On Friday I worked in my backyard all day and by the end of the day I ached all over.  I loved every minute of it!


I am sharing a little crinoline lady cookie jar (I guess a cookie jar?) that I found at the market.  Isn't she cute.  It was fun walking through the market although it was very hot.  I just checked later to see just how hot it was Saturday and I was right as it was 93 degrees in Denver (only 83 degrees in Colorado Springs at the same time). We don't have much humidity here but it was still very hot for me as I have worked in air conditioning for years.  








My husband and I promised each other that straw hats will now live permanently in the backseat of our car.  How in the world did we leave home without them?  We did find an umbrella in the car.  I guess we were more prepared for rain but the umbrella helped with the sun.





So welcome to "Tea In the Garden" and I hope you can join in the fun by sharing something tea related at the bottom from your blog.   Some of you remember I made this little seat cover last year.



Please pour yourself a lovely cup of tea. 
 Lately, I have been drinking lots of Yorkshire
 Gold iced tea.  Because of the caffeine,
I do have a cut off time of 2:00 pm.


I hope you are having a wonderful summer.  We had trouble over the weekend remembering what day it was.   As we were out on Saturday  we keep thinking it felt like Sunday afternoon and we would have to go to work the next day.

  Oh my, this will take some getting used to
 but I'm sure we can do it!
