Come For Tea

The dogwood are in bloom.  It is a beautiful morning.


We need to celebrate the beauty.  So I've made a pot of tea and set the table on our deck.

Aren't the dogwood beautiful?


I hope you have time for a visit.  I made some banana muffins with chocolate chips in them :)




It's  another beautiful spring day here in North Carolina, made by God just for us, so I am going to take a little time to enjoy it before I start my work day.  I hope you have time to stay a little while and enjoy it with me.
For those of you who are still waiting for spring, be patient.  It's on its way!!

  1. Greetings Rhondi, Oh how I love Dogwood trees! We had a small one in California but here can only get bushes. Your yard looks so refreshing and inviting-wish I could stop by for tea.
    Have a delightful week.

  3. Rhondi, there's nowhere I'd rather be than out there under the Dogwood, sipping tea with you. Did you know that Dogwood is the provincial emblem of British Columbia?

  4. Hi Rhondi,
    I'm on my way! The thought of sitting on your lovely deck in good company and admiring the pretty dogwood is just what I need right now (we have gales and rain here in northern England). A big thank you for the link you left for the alternative (knitted) Royal Weddding. I laughed all the way through. What a great little video and what a talent to produce it. Let's hope the real event at the end of the month is just as enjoyable!! Eli x

  9. What a beautiful place to have tea. The dogwood tree is beautiful, I would love to grow one, but they are not hardy in my Zone. I will enjoy yours as we have tea. Take care:)

  21. Rhondi, it's Sunday afternoon and I'm just sitting on the sun porch with my laptop, but I'd much rather be sitting under the dogwood trees having tea with you. Beautiful as always. So happy to see you posting again.

  22. I've been wanting to start my own blog so I thought I would "surf the internet" and I came across yours. It is lovely! I love my porch (we spend many great hours there) , I sometimes see life through rose colored glasses (my choice), I am a grandmother of 8, and I live in the south (Mississippi). Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home...it was a pleasant trip!
