Virtual Tea Party

Today, in honor of the last day of Hot Tea Month, I am hosting a virtual tea party. I hope you'll join us. Pour yourself a cup of your favorite tea (or coffee) and find a little delicious treat or tea sandwich and take a few moments to relax and enjoy.

We have enjoyed the tradition of sitting down to a nice little tea party for at least 14 years or so. Sometimes we do very fancy, and sometimes we do very simple. But the one constant is the time we spend together sitting and sipping.

I have shared a couple of other posts this month about our tea traditions and some of our collection of teapots and cups and other assorted pieces, and also a couple of our traditional sandwich recipes. Here is another recipe that came about quite by accident. A friend and I were putting on a tea party for another friend's birthday and we weren't sure when we finished making the sandwiched if we had enough for everyone. So we put our thinking caps on and began to brainstorm with what we had and came upon a delicious Cashew Cream Cheese Sandwich on Cinnamon Raisin Bread. It was absolutely delicious! We simply mixed some cashews into some cream chees and spread it on some raisin bread and viola! Everyone loved them!

There are a lot of ways to make your tea time special. A simple floral arrangement, special tea cups, special menu, whatever it is, no matter how simple or elaborate, the time you take is what is important. The time and the tradition.

There are also quite a few edible flowers that can be incorporated whether you choose to eat them or not. Two of my favorites are roses and pansies. They help make your presentation beautiful and can be eaten as well.

However you choose to enjoy your tea, I hope you have enjoyed our virtual tea party here.

Procrastination

You know the trouble with computers? They have too many gadgets to amuse me and keep me from focusing on the task at hand. Am I the only one who needs a little break and sneaks away from the task at hand to go play a quick game? Pop in on FB to see what everyone is doing?

Meanwhile time just fritters away. Oh Lord, help me to have better self control, teach me to number my days. Going to grab a quick cup of tea and try to get focused so I can come back and work on today's real post.

Blessings!

Swap Meets, Redecorating and Moving Day

Well, since I've been working to try to get my life back after our accident, I am excited to try to begin crafting again and also to decorate our little trailer home. When we bought the trailer a year and a half ago it was brand new and I couldn't bear the thought of putting any holes anywhere or doing anything that would mar the beautiful newness. Of course spending months in bed also leaves no time, energy or motivation to do any decorating. When you don't have enough strength to take a shower, it's a little difficult to think about decorating your living space.

Well, as time has passed it has become depressing to live in a place that has no personal touches, no personality, it just isn't home. So, I am now on a journey to make it home. To that end I went and did a little shopping the past few days. I love to try to buy used; thrift stores, yard sales, swap meets, ebay, etc... So, the other day I decided to get up early to take my husband to work so I could visit my favorite swap meet. But I decided at the last minute to go to a swap meet I had been trying to get to for years but somehow kept showing up on the wrong days. I was rather discouraged when I showed up a little before 7 am to a swap meet that is supposed to start at 5, only to find very few vendors and most of them just getting started with their setup. I contemplated cutting my losses (the .50 entry fee) and heading to my regular place. But I decided to wait it out.

A little after seven I decided to start walking around a little and my patience paid off! First find was a miniature cabinet that definitely needs a good cleaning and a paint job, but I am hoping to find a home for it in my bedroom when it's done. Cost: $3.00! Yippee!

My favorite color is red and I am trying to not only collect red things, but to replace things I already have with red. (I am looking forward to purhasing a red crockpot in the near future!) So, I was very tempted when I saw a beautiful red pie pan for only $3.00! It was one of those beautiful stoneware pans with decorative edges that I have had my eye on for a long time. But I haven't done any real baking since we've been in the trailer. For two reasons, first because of the aforementioned physical limitations, but lately because there just isn't room. So, I decided to pass on the pie pan. I wandered around a little more. Found some cute Hello Kitty nail decals for my daughter, a few little red pieces of tupperware and then headed back to my car to call it a day. As I got to my car I started to think about that beautiful red pie plate. I tried to reason with myself, "Colleen, how often do you make pies anymore?" But then I thought, I could use it for other things, fudge, casseroles, cakes. Hmmm, it's pretty small for casseroles. I went back and forth about it all the way back to the car and then I realized, if I leave without this pie pan that I know costs at least $15 in the store I will regret it! So, I wandered around the maze and found my way back to the vendor and bought not only my beautiful new $3.00 red stoneware pie pan, but also a nice little $2.00 red stoneware mini casserole pan! My husband was excited when he saw that and asked, "so is that my new french onion soup crock?" Yes Honey. But now my conundrum, they had two of the pie pans, and I only bought one, should I go back and get the other one? Because as soon as I got home I regretted not getting them both! Hmmm.

After the swap meet I stopped off at Michael's Craft Store and picked up a few little items for Valentine's Day. My most exciting find was a little red heart wreath that is meant to be a Valentine decoration, but since red is my decor color it will work all year long. It was only $2.99 and I had a 40% off coupon so you just can't beat that!

Today we finally made it out to the Camping World store to buy the shower curtain rod we have been wanting for months! It is a rod that curves out to give you more space in the shower. I can't wait for that to get put up. I also found the exact rack I have been wanting to help organize our plate cupboard. It is a three tier rack that will make life much easier. 

Next up was a trip to Wal Mart where I finally found a bathroom rug in a color I wanted. My husband loves purple so I try to make our bedroom and bathroom purple for him. I found a beautiful purple bath mat and my goal is to do some shabby chic purple, pink, and white in there. Also, the big hurrah, finally found the spring rods I need to make our kids their bunk curtains! I have been wanting to do that since we got the trailer, but as we know, have not been up to it. We did not find the material for them. I want them to find something they love, not just settle for anything. So it will be a few days at least before we can continue with that project, but we do have the most important part, rods that fit! I also finally got some wall decor that I have been wanting for awhile. Unfortunately one is a wallpaper border I've had my eye on, but the space for it is not big enough. Oh well. I picked up some hardware I needed to be able to hang things on the wall. All in all, I am set to work on some decorating! We also recently pulled one of my fabric bins out of storage so my daughter and I are excited about getting to do some crafting, decorating, and possibly some baking.  

I will post pictures as soon as possible. It is very late and tomorrow is moving day. As full time RVers we move every couple of weeks. Tomorrow is moving day, which is a long and tiring day. And after moving we still have to go grocery shopping and buy some new sneakers for my daughter and I.

Have a blessed day!

Tea Sandwiches

One of our favorite things about tea parties are the delicious finger sandwiches! We have our traditional favorites and I thought I'd share some recipes with you. We cut each type of sanswich into a different shape and of course we remove the crusts! Which can then either be fed to birds or snacked on while you are making them.

Choice of bread is one of those personal taste issues. We normally use white bread for our cucmber and egg salad sandwiches and wheat for our chicken and tuna sandwiches. But you can experiment with your favorite breads.

Mine and our daughter's favorite tea sandwich is the traditionl Cucumber Sandwich. I learned how to make them from a friend who also introduced me to high tea many years ago and they are absolutely delicious! We always cut our cucumber sandwiches into squares.

CUCUMBER SANDWICHES:

Ingredients:
bread
cucumbers
cream cheese
butter (you can use either salted or unsalted, it's your preference)
salt

Wash your cucumbers. You can peel them completely or partly, it's up to you. An important step to making a delicious cucumber sandwich is to slice the cucmbers, lay them on a paper towel or tea towel and sprinkle salt on them, cover them with another towel and let them sit for about 10 minutes. This will draw the excess water out of the cucumbers allowing them to last throughout your party without becoming soggy.
Next spread cream cheese on one slice of bread and real butter on the other slice of bread. It is a good idea to let your cream cheese and butter sit out for a little bit to soften, I also cream them some with a fork to make them easier to spread. Lay your cucumbers on either slice and put your sandwich together. Cut off your crusts and cut your sandwiches into square quarters. In my opinion and experience, a square is the perfect shape for cucumber sandwiches.

 

Another family favorite is Egg Salad sandwiches. We make a very simple egg salad as we don't like vinegars or relish in our egg or potato salads. Our shape for our egg salad sandwiches is a rectangle.

EGG SALAD SANDWICHES:

Ingredients:

Bread
18 Hard Boiled Eggs
1 Cup Mayonnaise
2 tsp Mustard
1-2 Cloves of crushed Garlic (Optional)
Salt
Black Pepper

Mix the mayonnaise, mustard, crushed garlic, salt and pepper. Mash the eggs. We mash our eggs using a potato masher and then add our mayonnaise, mixture. All measurements are approximate because I just mix to taste. The garlic is optional, we love it, but not everyone does. If you don't, just omit it.

Well, these are our two favorites. I will add more as time permits.

Blessings!

A Heart for Motherhood

Oh, Mothers of young children, I bow before you in reverence. Your work is most holy. You are fashioning the destinies of immortal souls. The powers folded up in the little ones that you hushed to sleep in your bosoms last night, are powers that shall exist forever. You are preparing them for their immortal destiny and influence. Be faithful. Take up your sacred burden reverently. Be sure that your life is sweet and clean.--JR Miller

I love this quote! There is truly nothing in the world more important than being a parent. It is the best vocation there could ever be. The world tells us that it isn't important. The world tells us to ship our beloved children off to daycare to be raised by an overworked, underpaid caretaker who is also trying to raise twenty or thirty other innocent young children. There is no time for them to be cherished, to be molded, to be discipled. I urge you to say NO and make a way to stay home and raise, cherish and disciple your own little blessings. It is one of the few things you will do in life that will last for all eternity.

Be Blessed!

Hot Tea Month

January is hot tea month!

One of the things I miss most about our lifestyle right now, is my inability to host tea parties. I love to host tea parties! So, I thought I'd indulge in a little virtual tea party right here.

There is something so inspiring about a beautiful tea setting. It is simply beautiful, elegant and inspiring. Tea brings about the feeling that one should lounge and savor. Tea is not about hurrying. It is about savoring. About taking time to enjoy each other. Time to relax, sit, sip and savor. When you think of tea you don't think about running, chaos, noise. Tea inspires calm thoughts. Maybe that's one of the things I love most about it.

I absolutely adore teapots! I am not sure how many I have. More than some might think is necessary, but less than any true tea devotee should have I would think. I have elegant teapots, whimsical teapots, country themed teapots, holiday teapots. Many of my teapots were gifts from wonderful friends and so I treasure them even more dearly! This is also the blessing of tea parties, they are meant to be shared. Friends are meant to be treasured over a nice cup of tea and scones.

My most prized teapot isn't really a teapot at all. It's a coffee pot. It was my grandmother's china set that she gave to me just before she passed away. Oh how I loved to eat off the good china! So we serve tea out of it and we love and cherish every sip because it reminds us of her love. The pattern is Johnson Brothers Enchanted Garden. It is missing a few pieces that had broken over the years and originally I thought I would replace them, but then I thought those wouldn't be from her, so what's the point? So I never did. Part of the love affair with tea parties is the tradition of it all. You feel connected and like you are a part of some grand tradition.

My affection for Johnson Brothers however, led me to some other patterns and purchases, like the one above. That is Summer Chintz and I not only have a few tea cups and saucers, but this is also the pattern of perhaps my most extravagant purchase ever! I'll get to that in a moment. I also have two or three other Johnson Brother patterns in my collection. A white swirl and a pink house teapot and cookie jar. Well, I had a pink house cookie jar, it got broken in the move to the townhouse. I have also learned to let go through my love of beautiful tea things. I have learned that things are just things. Things are not meant to be permanent. People are meant to be permanent. I treasure my loved ones much more than any thing I could own, so I use them and if one breaks, no biggie. Clean it up and move on to the next one. I wasn't always like that. I used to love things. I used to mourn the loss of the things I loved. But now I love my things, but they are meant to be enjoyed and shared and one day either they will leave me or I will leave them. My loved ones will, hopefully, if I have anything to say about it, be there in heaven with me!

I have quite a collection of different tea cups. I actually have very few sets. The only complete set I own is the set from my grandmother. All the rest are odds and ends I've picked up here and there. So, my teapots and tea cups don't ever match, but that's ok. That's part of the charm of tea. it is eclectic. It can be just as easily elegant or whimsical with a full matching set, or with an assortment of mismatched items. You can try to pull together a certain color scheme if you like, but I love to set out my assorted tea cups and allow my friends to choose the one they like best. It's part of the fun and charm of tea parties, imo.

And then there is the tidbit tray. Did you just ask me what a tidbit tray is? That's okay, I never knew before my fascination with tea began either. It is a tray to serve tidbits on. No, seriously. There are many different styles of tidbit trays. My favorite is the tiered tray. I only two of these because they are difficult to store. But I do have plans for more, if we ever have room that is. Which leads me to the reveal of my most extravagant purchase ever...

My Summer Chintz Tidbit tray! I will not reveal how much I paid for it, only my husband and God know that! But when I bought it they didn't exist! I found it and the price was more than I would normally ever pay, but I loved it! I searched and searched for another one. All over the web I traveled in my search, only to find they didn't seem to exist! Not even the manufacturer had ever heard of them. So, with my husband's blessing, I bought it. And I haave never regretted it! I absolutely love it!! I do believe mine was handmade because the ones I see now do not look like mine, don't have the same hardware, and mine actually has a bowl on top (this is a picture of one I found online) which I cannot find anywhere.

And lastly, for this post at least, is the beautiful serva-snak dishes. These were my first find and I fell madly and completely in love with them! I have since gathered others, but none as beautiful as these fan ones. These are delightful because they have a little rimmed section of the plate for your cup. So, you can put your food and drink on your plate and mingle! These are wonderful if you don't have enough room for a sit down tea. Let everyone meander around and visit. Now, wandering the room is not the same kind of tea party as a sit down, so please don't give up the sit down variety! But it can be fun if you want to have a large group and think you can't do a tea party because there isn't room to sit. These trays can also be used at a sit down tea party. But our lives are so rushed already that the whole point of a tea party is to take the time to sit and refresh. And the point of sharing a tea party with friends is to sit and really visit! So, be mindful of the atmosphere you want to create when planning your party. But don't stress about it! Tea parties are meant to be fun!

Well, hopefully you are feeling inspired to enjoy a cup of hot tea to celebrate hot tea month. Perhaps throw in a scone or cucumber sandwich and really enjoy! I will be back soon with some recipes and other musings on tea parties.

Until then....

Be Blessed!

Our Journey to Full Time RVing

I thought I'd explain a little of where we are today and then I will go back to catch up on how we got here. lol

I will flesh things out as they come up. But for now, I felt stuck, like I couldn't move on because I hadn't done all the writing I had intended when I started this blog. Because there was a huge gap in our journey that kept me from moving forward, a large valley between the old and the new that I somehow couldn't get over. So, this post is meant to be the bridge that gets me from the past, to the present so I can move forward. Hope you enjoy the abridged (no pun intended) story of our journey.

We are full time RVers now. We made the transition, wow that is such a nice word, we didn't transition at all! We made the leap to full time about 18 months ago. Just after our car accident. We had always thought this was something we wanted to do. It was my grandparent's dream, although they didn't get to live it. And my husband's parents lived this life for 16+ years.

Sixteen years ago we had planned to take our homeschooling family on the road in an RV, but life got in the way and plans got sidelined. Five years ago we moved from our large, approximately 2500 sq ft home into a fairly small townhouse. It was small but it had a lot of things on my wish list. A built in pool, actually two, in our complex, an attached two car garage, three bathrooms, a dishwasher. Our landlady was a dream and we couldn't have asked for better neighbors. That's where we were when I started this blog. But shortly thereafter life got in the way again!

I had to have surgery and would not be able to climb stairs for at least 2 months following the surgery. Well, that was going to be very difficult living in a two story townhouse with no shower on the first floor. We laughed a little about setting up a kiddie pool in the garage where I could hose myself off for a couple of months. But seriously we needed to look at finding somewhere I could recuperate. We found a great house just a mile up the road from us! A nice big 4 bedroom, 3 bath home on half an acre of agricultural property. Now, I should say that for the past 16 years my heart has been torn. Part of me wants to travel and the other part wants to settle down and live off the land. Basically if I'm not going to be doing one, I'd like to be doing the other.

So, here at last was the place we could put one of those dreams into motion! We had raised chickens for years before moving into the townhouse so I wasted no time finding us some chickens again! I love raising chickens! We love the fresh eggs. I love the sound of the cackling that sounds like laughter to me. We found a nice little family of 5 Rhode Island Red Hens and a Rhode Island Red Rooster. Here they are:

I also hurried up and got us two goats, Mama Goat and Papa Goat. What an adventure that was, but I will leave that for another day. Here are Mama and Papa Goat.

Mama is the dark brown doe standing, and Papa is the cream colored buck laying down.

I had my surgery and we prepared to settle into our little farm as soon as I had recovered. Our daughter set about learning how to be a horse owner since that has always been her dream and I had already decided that the last two years of high school for her would focus heavily on that.

And then, there it is, my glider sitting gracefully under the beautiful weeping willow tree where I dreamed of days spent sipping tea and relaxing with my Bible.

However, once again, life had other plans for us! First I had to have another surgery just three months after the first. I hadn't fully gotten on my feet from the first one, and here I was having another. Then, before we could even unpack we had to move again. Good-bye to our beautiful little farm. But the good news is we were moving to a bigger house on a bigger lot where we could have our goats, our chickens and add horses! Sounds like a little bit of heaven right? Um, well not so fast.

First off, the new place was in the desert, in a place I had vowed I would never live! Second, the house was a fixer upper, definitely on my NO list when we had first moved. But life has a way of taking us places we never thought we'd go. So, off we went on a new adventure.

Again, I will leave those adventures for another time. We had added two horses and a dog to the family, and Mama and Papa Goat blessed us with two new kids. Well three but one didn't survive.

Here is Samantha's first horse Tinkerbell:

Then we added Princess, a Welch Corgie Mix puppy a little less than a year old:

Then came Danny Boy, a rescue Arabian about 25 years old, he is such a lover!

And finally came the baby goats, Angel and her brother Buddy! We knew Mama Goat was expecting and had her penned in her little nesting area, but we woke up one morning to find new surprises waiting for us!

They were seriously two of the cutest little things I'd ever seen in my life! We just couldn't get enough of them!

But once more, before we could settle in and unpack, life had another twist in store for us. Things were not going well at our new farm. I won't go into details, but it was not the situation we had bargained for when we rented the property.

Then in a whirlwind came the decision that we could no longer stay where we were so we set about finding another place but before we could, we were in a major car accident and our lives were turned upside down!

We made the decision to move into the RV for the remainder of the summer while I was undergoing intense physical therapy and then decide on a new place after I was better. We didn't anticipate that it was going to take months, and months and three surgical procedures before I got to the place where I would be released from Physical Therapy. Or that once I was released there was no getting me back on my feet. After spending 7 months in bed in constant excruciating pain, I was so weak I could barely stand, let along do any kind of rehab on my own. But on my own I was. So I spent another 5 months in bed, too weak to do much else. Barely able to stand long enough to shower, let alone do any kind of exercise.

So, there in a nutshell is how we ended up here. :-) During many of those moves we were without internet connection and for the past 18 months we have had no interenet and no computer. I am using our son's laptop now to try to get things going.

So, now that we've made the leap to living our "dream", there are days I am sure this is our dream. And there are days I'm certain we've found our way into another nightmare! lol But we made this decision to do this as we seek God about where He wants us and what He wants us to do, so, we continue to seek where God wants us, and what He wants us to do, and we stay nice and cozy in our little trailer while we do it. :-)

I hope you've enjoyed catching up on our little journey. Now we can move forward!

Be Blessed!

Finding Me Again

For the past couple of weeks I have been ravenously scouring the pages of pinterest, pinspire and google images. It started a little before Christmas, I was feeling discouraged and frankly depressed about the fact that we had no Christmas tree or decorations again this year. I felt a longing for beauty, for tradition. I felt empty.


Yes I know, Christmas is NOT about the tree, decorations, or gifts, it's about Jesus' birthday. I know it, plenty of people have reminded me of this fact the past couple of years as they chastised me for struggling with the lack of these things. This year after trying to talk to a friend or two I realized it was pointless so I didn't talk to anyone about it. Did NOT feel like being chastised again for my lack of focus on the "important". And here's what I realized. Who said I was not focusing on the true meaning of Christmas? Who says I can't have both? I noticed that all the "friends" who kept telling me that those things weren't important, weren't skipping them in their homes. None of them refused to put up a tree and decorations because, "that's not what's really important". None of them bypassed buying gifts for their family because, "that's not what's really important". I noticed none of them forwent their traditional Christmas dinner because, "that's not what's really important". So, as I fell further into depression over the lack of "those things that aren't important" I realized that I have been missing things that are beautiful to me.


So, I turned to Google Images and began to look up tea pots, tea cups, victorian images, Christmas images. I began to feel a little less empty. Then I remembered a friend talking about Pinterest so I decided to check it out. Aha! I had hit the motherlode!! Hundreds upon hundreds of pictures of beautiful things! Inspiring Quotes! Interesting New Recipes! I am starting to feel alive again!


Reflecting I'm realizing that in the past months, I have lost everything that makes me, well me. I have not had any of my belongings around me. I have not been able to craft, to decorate, to do much cooking, not been able to entertain, to host tea parties, karaoke parties, Christmas parties. Not been able to serve others. Celebrate special occasions. I not only lost the use of my body in that accident, I lost me. So, now I am on a mission to change that! Since I am still limited in my physical abilities, I am enjoying perusing the beauty that is Pinterest. But, I am also working on doing what I can do. Gathered a few craft supplies to work on. Dreaming up some decorating ideas. Cooking a little more. Slowly coming back to life after months of a kind of suspended animation. Hello world, I'm on my way back!


Be Blessed!

Quote for the day - Fresh Start

“IF YOU HAVE MADE MISTAKES THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER CHANCE FOR YOU. YOU MAY HAVE A FRESH START ANY MOMENT YOU CHOOSE.”

Mary Pickford

Came upon this quote today and thought it was a fitting complement to my New Year's Post. I'm guessing this is my message for this time in my life. I have a lot of changes in the works and God must be trying to tell me something. Each and every day is a new opportunity to make different choices, better choices. Working on my health and still trying to get on my feet from our car accident a year and half ago. It turns your world upside down when something like that happens. Still working on getting it turned right side up. :-)

Be Blessed!

Life Jacket vs Life Boat

Question:
If the boat you were in capsized, which would you rather depend on to save yourself and your loved ones, a life jacket or a life boat? Why do I ask?


Well, the past couple of years have been more than challenging. There have many times when I literally felt like I was drowning. This morning as I was praying I realized that the mistake I've been making is trying to do too much of it in my own strength. It's as if I was really drowning, in the ocean, and I had to choose between a life jacket = doing it on my own, or a life boat = letting God carry me through. I have been choosing the life jacket!! How crazy is that when you look at it like that? Why do I continue to struggle with turning things over to Him? Is it simply human nature? Or is it more deeply rooted in the way I've learned to cope in a world that hasn't always been a safe place? Whatever the cause, I intend to seek Him harder, and cry out to Him more, rather then trying to keep myself afloat I think I shall choose to seek refuge in the life boat. Which is exactly the way He wants it. That I am sure of!


Be blessed!

Time Really Does Fly! Believe it!

Yesterday was Samantha's 19th birthday! Where does the time go? When I was youger, older people used to tell me that time really flies and they just didn't know where it went, now I truly understand. Life is like the blink of an eye! Make the most of it! Thankful for a wonderful day spent with two of our wonderful children!


Be Blessed!

Happy New Year

Another new beginning. Another chance to do things differently, to make better choices, to learn from our mistakes. Another opportunity to evaluate our lives and see what is working and what is not. New dreams to dream, new adventures to have, new opportunities to explore. There is something about the New Year that brings about those feelings, and yet in truth, each moment holds these same opportunities. Every morning we have a fresh start, every week we get a new beginning, but truth be realized, we don't have to wait for these times to start fresh. At any moment in time we can stop, take a look at our lives and make choices to start anew and afresh. To change course, to let go of things that need to be left behind and to start something new. At any moment in our lives we can decide to chase an adventure, to dream a new dream. So, while it's great that this is the beginning of a brand new year and the obvious opportunity to evaluate and change things, let's not get stuck in the muck and mire of life. Let's remember all year long that we have the opportunity to make changes in our lives! To begin again. Remember, His mercies are new every morning, and so are the opportunities He puts in front of us. What would you like to change? It's not too late to make a new start.


Happy New Year!!


Be Blessed,
Colleen
