Downton Abbey Tea Party

My new 'favorite' show is Downton Abbey. I've met someone who has the same obsession and hosted a tea party using the show as her theme. I love it!

Ava's Secret Tea Party Gift Idea

We ate at Cracker Barrel recently and I found the cutest tea party set made of felt - perfect for toddlers! For baby showers, I often buy tea party sets to give as gifts along with a copy of Ava's Secret Tea Party.

Ava's Secret Tea Party

My husband bought beautiful flowers for me and I think they bring out the beauty of the cover for "Ava's Secret Tea Party." The book shown is the hardcover version. I received the tea cup at a Mother's Day banquet where I spoke, and the crystal paperweights were gifts as well. Lovely memories to keep.

Tea Party with Linore

My friend, Linore Rose Burkard, invited me to a tea party. We had such fun sipping tea, eating homemade soup and sandwiches, and apple crisp with whipped cream Strawberies & Daydreams catered the tea held at The Peddler House. A wonderful way to spend a beautiful autumn day!
