Ruby Tea...

This Ruby Tea has nothing to do with

grapefruits or colors.

It has to do with my Grandmother Ruby,

who was the painter of my cup and saucer today:-)

(click photos to enlarge)

I thought today we would set tea up under the Pussy Willow,

and enjoy the dappled sunlight streaming in...

A simple tea on a little tray..

set on the edge of the rockery wall,

I brought along a  pillow for comfort:-)

Here is the mix match cup and saucer my Grandmother painted,

She loved to paint china,

and she loved to paint roses!

I thought the teacup paired nicely

 with a snip of my Ballerina Rose

She even painted this sweet bud inside the cup...

The little saucer with a Nancy Reagan Rose...

A tiny saucer of fruit..

thinly sliced Nectarines and blueberries

A better look at the Nancy Reagan Rose.

Her vase is a vintage Vaseline bottle,

which has turned to purple sunglass.

Today I am joining several Tea Parties!

Won't you join in?
