Tea Stands for Tuesday - 11/22/16


Hello on Tuesday.  I am sorry I missed everyone last week.  We were at the River House and we have yet to get internet there. 




You could find me sitting on the front porch most mornings. Sometimes with my bottle of water.  I picked a tangerine from our tree but it wasn't ripe.




The tree is loaded with fruit.  DH is the official gardener but has never grown any citrus except lemons so this is all new.  We were told that it might be around Christmas before these are ripe.



I saved you the best seat on the porch.  You're welcome.  Even though it is getting cooler it is still quite pleasant to sit out there.  I have an old afghan that will go on the rocker if it gets really chilly.

Time to visit Elizabeth and the Tea Gang to see what has been going on this past week.

  5. It looks like you have a fabulous view from your porch. And having a tangerine tree must be wonderful and unique. I have friends in CA who have both avocado and lemon trees in their back yard, but I've never seen a tangerine tree before.

    Thanks for sharing your front porch view, your tangerine tree, and your water with us for T this Tuesday. Let us know when the fruit is ripe enough to eat, please. Also, have a lovely Thanksgiving, too.

  9. What a lovely place that is. And I love the rocking chair on the porch. Thank you for the invitation. I'm feeling more relaxed already. What a wonderful thing to have a tangerine tree outside. I guess a tangerine is like a mandarin. Have you tasted them yet?
    Enjoy.
    Happy T-Day,
    Hugs,
    Lisca
