And I was nowhere near close to being married and beginning a family when I purchased it. I use it for primarily for my Autumn and Winter tea parties. But sometimes, it is nice to have a cuppa in an Old Country Roses teacup--even while sitting in my pajamas in front of the t.v. :) I also collect Brambly Hedge and have the Four Seasons cups/saucers/dessert plates.

One of my good friends has bought me a birthday subscription of Tea Time for several years now and I, like you, look forward to each copy. For me, Tea Time is primarily an escape--everything is so beautiful and well-ordered in Tea Time's "world". (If only real life was like that! LOL) I love reading the recipes and I have taken their advice about how to garnish desserts; I got some great reviews at my last tea party ;) I'm sure you know that Tea Time is made by the same people who publish Victoria Magazine. Do you subscribe to Victoria, as well? I have one of their books on tea and it is always a pleasure to flip through the pages--especially right before bed. It is as comforting as a cuppa!<BR/><BR/>Great to know there are other younger "Tea Timers" out there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9202720910182986355.post-69608569465999399952009-03-20T18:18:00.000-05:002009-03-20T18:18:00.000-05:00Hi - that's really cool.

I am so glad we were able to have lunch and a pot of tea at the Rose Garden Tea Room a couple of years ago as we were traveling from Kentucky to South Carolina. The owners were very gracious hosts and I loved shopping in the gift shop. Sorry to hear they are going to Saturday group service only.

That being said, I was able to make a better selection because I not only got to read about the different tea they offered I got to smell them as well.<BR/>The food is amazing and enough to fill me up(I did not think it was going to be enough at first). The music is spectacular; there is something about a live performance with the sounds of music faintly bouncing off the high ceilings that makes this experience even more special. <BR/>I am glad she wrote about this one; this is special to me in many ways!<BR/><BR/>AdamAdamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05173152713469386325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9202720910182986355.post-18165973725143526512009-03-12T14:39:00.000-05:002009-03-12T14:39:00.000-05:00Thanks for the comment, Angela!
