Spiced and smoked black tea with a side of Lebkuchen. It was just the thing for a day of heavy skies. 🫖 #tea #teatime #timefortea #teacup #teacupsofinstagram #vintageteacups #lebkuchen #spicedtea #blacktea #lapsangsouchong #teaandcookies #teaandbiscuits #cuppa #cuppatea (at Bellingham, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHqdfrjAfM7/?igshid=14lwnmdgp5nbs

Happy Sunday! I’ve spent the weekend indulging in one of the ultimate luxuries- being lazy. It was a very busy week at work, with a holiday, a power outage, meetings, and ever increasing sales. So yesterday I gave myself as much rest as I could. I won’t even tell you how many naps that included! Today will involve baking, reading, light chores, and maybe another nap. Starting it off with homemade blueberry scones based on a @teatimemagazine recipe; a great beginning. ☕️ #scones #homemadescones #homebaker #teatimemagfeed #blueberryscones #frommyoven #bakedgoods #summerbounty #sundaymornings #littleluxuries #lazysunday #teacupsofinstagram #porcelain #bonechina #silverplatter (at Blaine, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFFPsmnAZm8/?igshid=1kipkqxoto8do

A rainbow cup stack for Pride. My hope for Pride, and all months, is that people learn to love themselves. And of course that others learn acceptance and compassion. Knowing yourself, loving yourself, and having others love you shouldn’t have to be a radical way of living. 🌈 #tea #teatime #teatimemagfeed #pride #pridemonth #priderainbow #rainbow #rainbowtea #teacups #teacupsofinstagram #vintage #vintageteacups #bonechina #porcelain #yesibrokeit #roygbiv (at Blaine, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB3PC6DgsL7/?igshid=1s3aketghfzvn

Happy National Tea Day to all my U.K. followers! Tea can be so many things- a quick cuppa, a fortifying beverage, a sweet pick me up, a refined drink, a ceremony, etc. It should be celebrated! I’m celebrating with this gorgeous combination in blue, which is a perfect match for how peaceful and hopeful all the recent sunshine has been making me feel. Doesn’t it just remind you of endless blue skies and lazy afternoons? Tea cozy by my Gramie, cup by Royal Stuart-Spencer Stevenson. #NationalTeaDay #Britishnationalteaday #teatime #teatimemagfeed @teatimemagazine #solidaritea #communitea #teacupsofinstagram #madeinengland #bonechina #porcelain #vintage #vintageteacups #vintagelace #blueskies #butterflies #personalluxury #itsthelittlethings (at Blaine, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_PfzmwgwJU/?igshid=1gatka1sbdjqt

I turned 33 on Sunday. I took a long weekend, only did exactly what I wanted to do and nothing I didn’t, and made this truly ridiculous Mississippi Mud Pie to celebrate. It’s delicious, but also SO extra that I can’t even finish a single piece. Not even with an incredibly strong cup of coffee on the side. I have visions of future-me possibly reworking the recipe into something a little more balanced, but for now I’m going to focus on present me. It was a really intense year, but I’m happy and thankful for every day I get to spend on this amazing planet. ♥️ #cake #birthdaycake #mississipimudpie #imsomartha #chocolateoverload #feedfeed #f52pie #teacupsofinstagram #lace #moody #darkacademia #teatimemagfeed #homebaker #homebaking #royalalbert #finechina #porcelain #silver #vintageluxury (at Bellingham, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5LGg3Aua8/?igshid=1c3i2jub1lm54

Royal Doulton Persian - a wild and busy pattern that makes me feel like I’m right there in the forest with the birds. These date from the 1920s, and while the cup and saucer are showing age via crazing, the plate is in wonderful condition. Can’t wait to take it into the garden once everything is green and growing and have a “life imitating art” moment. 🌿🦜🌿 #teatime #teacupsofinstagram #vintageteacups #vintageteacup #cupandsaucer #antiqueteacup #royaldoulton #persianpattern #teatimemagfeed #tealover #teatimelover #vintagelove #madeinengland #porcelain (at Blaine, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_kB0wwgfhi/?igshid=wa66y044nmr4

Last week was Afternoon Tea Week in the U.K., and I got to end my own week with a birthday tea for a friend. Unbeknownst to me, it was her first tea party ever!! So glad I could make it a special experience. We had blueberry scones, pimento cheese toasts, cucumber sandwiches, caprese skewers, and deviled eggs. There was fresh fruit with whipped cream, chocolate chip cookies, and shortbread. We drank earl grey tea despite the heat, and topped it off with glasses of bubbly. It was a fantastic way to spend an afternoon and celebrate a friend. 🦋 #afternoontea #teatime #teatimemagfeed @teatimemagazine #hightea #afternoonteaweek #homemade #bakedwithlove #freshflowers #bonechina #teacupsofinstagram #shortbread #summerfruit #vintagestyle #antiques (at Blaine, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD_X-PYAE15/?igshid=8gp7usd0zosl
