For the Christmas Open House, Mikel made Russian Tea. Family recipes are the best recipes, and this recipe is from Mikel’s mother Mavene. Russian Tea is delicious, super easy to make, and it is a perfect drink for a cold winter day. This recipe makes about 2 gallons of hot spiced tea. It is perfect if […]
A highlight of my Christmas each year is when the Grand’s (grand nieces and nephew + my grandchildren) come for our annual Christmas tea. It is a party for the children with the added bonus of getting to visit with my nephews and their sweet wives. A bummer for me this year was that Super […]
Isabelly’s Chocolates and Sweets! Sounds like my kind of place. It is a little sweet shop that you may have missed because it is located in downtown Richardson (If there is such a thing.) at 200 E. Main (Beltline) at McKinney Street. (southeast corner) Sometime ago I noticed the Isabelly’s Chocolate and Sweets signs on […]
A highlight of the Christmas season is when the Grands (grandson, grand nieces and nephew) come for a Christmas Tea. Their parents come too – but at this tea the children sit at the table, and the adults stand around and graze. Since Ever-Lovin’ and I had visited England this year, we thought an English […]
Harvest Tea at the DeGolyer Restaurant at the Dallas Arboretum is a treat. On the recent visit to the Arboretum, Super Sister, Friend Kim, and I treated ourselves to tea. Our table was set near the fireplace. I liked it. I loved it. It was warm and cozy. Beautiful Noritake chine – each piece was […]
Tea at the Crescent Court – What an experience! I liked it. I loved it. And, I took pictures to share. As a hostess gift, Stephanie and Evelyn invited the hostesses to tea at the Crescent Court. (Stephanie’s aunts and her Matron of Honor were also there.) How impressive is that? Nancy, Sheila, Janet, Wynette, […]
Certainly one needs to have tea in England, but how was I to choose? There were so many choices. I had seen pictures of tea at the Orangery at Kensington Palace, and I had read reviews that were favorable. Kensington Palace is one of the Royal Residences. It had its beginnings in the late […]
I like it. I love it. I look forward to this day every day of the year – it is our annual Christmas Tea for the Grand Kids. Super Sister has five wonderful grandchildren that live in the area, and we have Hot Rod. Each year all of the children and their parents come for […]
Super Sister mentioned that people were already pinning Christmas on Pinterest, and this would be a good time to share the Christmas Teas. On top of that, Hobby Lobby already has some Christmas displayed. (What happened to displaying Christmas after Thanksgiving or at least after Halloween?) Taking everything into consideration, I figured it was high […]
While out and about today, two of our friends ordered Arnold Palmer’s as drinks with lunch. As you know, this is the half tea and half lemonade drink that is sometimes called a half and half. This drink got me to thinking about a tea punch recipe I have. For years I have made a […]
