tea and ceasefire

Pic: A proper afternoon tea at The Orangery in Kensington Palace. Our day of indulgence!

And a good day to revisit the wonder of how the world has only two words for tea: Tea if by Sea, Cha if by Land.

Back home in Michigan, the morels are up. I want to tell Summer to hold back until I get back.

Feeling a bit lighter as we're are halfway through our trip and the countdown to home is ON.

And when I called my mom for Mother's Day, I heard India and Pak have a ceasefire! I'm so relieved!!

What a nice outing. I am reading about your English adventures while drinking the "Festive Breakfast" tea Noah got in London. I had been saving it for festive day.

The tea looks so beautiful -- and yes, always good to have a day of indulgence! I just received a package yesterday from my friend in London with tea, biscuits and chutney -- a wonderful surprise! I'm so happy there is a ceasefire. I hope it holds.
