Good morning. It seems hard to believe we are in July already. We are still pretty much staying home and avoiding contact with others. It is nice I can still visit and have tea here.
*Tea Celebrations
Alexandra Stoddard*
Here is a quote from the book. "Tea for one requires of us a vital ingredient besides some hot water and tea leaves: caring. We have to treat ourselves with the same tender love and affection as we treat a spouse, a parent, a sibling, a friend, or a lover. Just as our thoughts have a profound effect on our actions and reactions, when we do something for ourselves alone, we send a signal to our soul that our life has value."

I love the "tea for one" quote. In these days treating ourselves with some care is a helpful idea. Thx! Happy T Tuesday
ReplyDeleteI love the sentiment expressed here: be good to yourself. And then you have the resources to be good to others, I think.

beautiful quote and teacup. Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good, true quote. Hubby loves coffee, I love tea but we live due to those words, that´s what matters :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy T-day!
That's a great quote from the book. I'm continuing to avoid contact with others, to err on the side of caution. And I can't believe it's July already, either. Half the year is over. Wow. Happy T-Day!
ReplyDeleteSuch a stunning cup and saucer! The design is so elegant - I love it 😀. Happy T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful tea set. Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteA lovely quote to go with the beautiful teacup. Happy T Day.
ReplyDeleteI think I have a cup just like that, or had it, before giving them away when we downsized. It is beautiful. You have reminded me to get my tea books out and look at them again. I have them on a bedside table in our guest room.
ReplyDeleteIt has been awhile since I actually looked at them. Happy T Day!
I love the cup. It is very pretty. And cool that you have a nice tea book to quote too. Hope it was a great T day.
ReplyDeleteI'm finally back online. Thanks for joining this week's T party. Next week we will use Inlinkz because you can remove your link and start over again if you make a mistake Be sure to use ONLY your name in the "caption" and not your blog post, please.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing quote, Darla. Tea for one is how I would have to drink it now that the virus is flaring up again (or still). Thanks for sharing your incredible tea cup and quote with us for T this Tuesday, dear friend.
That's a great quote. It is at times like these that many people will have to make 'tea for one' and be kind to themselves.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week,
Lisca
What a beautiful quote and photo! Blessings on your week ahead ~
ReplyDeleteVery pretty photo, Darla. The quote is lovely and perfect for our tea party.
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day! Hugs, Eileen
I love your pretty cup and saucer. What a lovely quote from the book, I'm sure the same rules apply for making coffee for one! Belated Happy T Day, Chrisx
