First Tea Time in June


We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open. ~ Jawaharlal Nehru


Welcome friends to my first Tea Time in the month of June! The months are really flying by, aren't they? It's a good time to slow down and savour this moment, for this moment is fleeting. And what better way to slow down than with a cup of our favourite tea!


Summer will soon be here and I am going to be hosting another "Savour the Summer" Tea Party. On June 23 until June 28 you are invited to share your Summer themed teas. It may be an outdoor tea or an indoor tea. Many blooms will be in season by then so we should have a lovely variety to choose from. I hope you will be able to join me for that.


My little fairy bids you, "Come in!" 


She's the guardian over my blueberry cheesecake today.



haven't featured any blue for a while so I have set the tea table with my pretty Botanic Blue.



It is written on the arched sky; it looks out from every star. It is the poetry of Nature; it is that which uplifts the spirit within us. ~ John Ruskin


These pieces are adorned with butterflies and a variety of flowers.

 I am having Stash Double Bergamot Earl Grey tea today.


All the blues remind me of the bright blue sky above us and the beautiful blue water that surrounds us here on PEI.



This blue is especially appreciated in the summertime when we're spending time at the beach. One of my favourite places to be!

{For those of you who were wondering about my new wall colour in the living room, you can see it behind the teapot.}


Tea is a meal for all seasons; it's also suitable for all occasions. ~ Angela Hynes


Both the creamer and the teacup have a little butterfly just inside the rim.



The past number of days have been just gorgeous and I have been able to open the windows.
I love the scent of spring and summer in the air! You know what I'm talking about. It is warm and heavily laden with a scent I can't quite describe, only that it is unforgettable. Just like a good cup of tea.


Our home is filled with warmth and love,
Prayers and gifts from heaven above.
Please bless these things that we love best,
O dear Lord, please bless our nest. ~ Veronica Curtis

Thank you for visiting today and if you have some tea things to share, I would love to see them! Teacups, teapots/coffee pots, coffee mugs, tablescapes, a new tea you have discovered, or a trip to a Tea Shop; all are welcome here at Tea Time!

You are welcome to do coffee instead of tea or any of the following~ iced tea or iced coffee, lemonade, hot chocolate, hot apple cider, or punch in a lovely bowl.
