I Will Honour Christmas In My Heart

I will honour Christmas in my heart,
and try to keep it all the year.
I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future.
The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me.
I will not shut out the lessons that they teach!

Tea at Sugar's Tea Room!

A week ago, my Victorian Group had our Christmas get together at Sugar's Tea Room. This is one of my favorite places. Here is the gift shop which greets you when you first walk in....... Delightful Treasures await you... As we walked up stairs to where we would be seated, I took pics of the rooms that we passed by..... Each decorated differently.... This is the Gold Room with it's iron gazebo in the center... A beautiful vignette on the buffet... A cozy little spot for Tea.... Beautiful Gold decorations.... An Alcove all decorated.... Santa.... The pink Room..... There was a party going on in there so I did not want to intrude too much... The Green Room... Beautiful decorations..... A painting on the stair case.... The room that we were in.... Our Tea sandwiches...... Freshly baked scones.... Notice the serving piece... A Beautiful plate glued to a candle stick!! Us Bloggers know all about that , right?????? John and Lisa.... Joe and I... Finally a decent pic of me and he has his eyes closed.... Al and Carol...... Jolyn and Amy.... Ann Marie and Rose Marie and her hubby...... Rosalie and Joe. I think he was going to stick his tongue out at me...... Such a beautiful place.... Another room with a party in progress..... And another room..... Sugar's Tea Room is owned by 2 sisters and they do a wonderful job! Good food, beautiful atmosphere and wonderful friends made for a lovely day! I am linking up to : Seasonal Sunday Amaze me Monday Tea Time Tuesday Tea Cup Tuesday Tea Pots and Tea Things Tuesday Tabletop Tuesday All Things Merry and Brite Rednesday If you missed my HOME TOUR, please click on the pics of each room on my side bar to read the post on that room or Click on the first one, The Front of Our Home and that will link you through all 7 posts!!!

    How wonderful to have a victorian group and get to wear those beautiful hats!! I would love a reason to wear a fancy hat! I often walk by them and dream about wearing them here and there. I think I would get too many looks though, lol. Merry Christmas!

    There is so much to see I can't imagine taking it all in on just one visit! It looks like you all had a good time, and you're right, it is a very good picture of you and fortunately your husband is handsome even with his eyes closed.( so use this picture of the two of you liberally )

    It would have been nice attending this event with you. However, I probably would have not eaten much for looking at all the lovely things there. That is a good picture of you two even if he dosed off.

    What a fancy, fancy tea room!!! That pedestal cake plate is very similar to what I make and sell at Julieanna's, where we had our Holiday Tea. Thanks for dropping by for Tea on Tuesday!

    Oh what fun, Debbie! A lovely tearoom, and a group of friends for tea. I really enjoyed your post and I think it's great that your husband would go to a tearoom. I don't think I could get mine there.
    Hugs, Beth

    I've never ever been to a tea room, and now I see what I've been missing! What a great place to just relax and catch up with friends, over a good cup of tea!
    Happy REDnesday!
