Midnight Summer Tea

Welcome to my Midnight summer savour tea, I am joining Sandi, Martha & Terri. But I'm going to be good and stay away from Sandi's goodies, and have some grapes and cheese. Also, it's past midnight and that means it's about three at Sandi's she should be fast asleep. This little set is an ideal midnight size. I am having it on an oval marble table in our room. Frogs are croaking, fan is running lightly, doors are all open, one of those beautiful nights-God is good...

I'am using a chintz smaller tea set. The table cloth I will show at a later date, each corner has a different colour of embroidery work, very pretty. Also, in picture above is a double side salt and pepper shaker, that matches the teapot, creamer and tiny tea cup.

I do love chintz, this teapot is Lord Nelson, my rose is Abraham Darby, I think Old fashioned?, old something, I was asked a couple of weeks ago what it was, and I have checked and by the time I get inside and get the computer started I forget.

My Romantic Home magazine is last months, I still haven't found one for this month and have missed the article on Sandi, I can't believe it. Our local store got a new owner and he cancelled the magazine order for the day that I believe it came in, have been all over and can't find one. Unless, we are really behind in Ontario and it's coming out this week. I can only hope.

I had mentioned above the set is Lord Nelson Ware and the pattern is "Rose Time"

 The tea is spice Chai, i just love the smell, now I must say, this little cup is very hard to drink from. I see Martha at Martha's favorites had the same set only full size and I wonder how it was. The lip turns in, very uncomfortable and hard not to drip.

 the little dish is Royal Albert and no pattern name on it. I use it for earrings, and bracelets.

the tray is just a cheap plastic one I bought for summer time, but it has been ideal for my teas alone, I don't have a lot to carry and it is pretty with the roses.

the chintz dish is by Royal Winton and the pattern is "Sunshine"

well it's getting bed time and also getting hot, we are in for some hot weather in the next couple of days, so might be into the ice tea. Thank you for stopping by and joining me for a cup of tea, I did manage to get 5 very small cups out of the tiny teapot and I do love the daintiness of it... Stop by again, and I so look forward to any comments
