A Cup of Christmas Tea....

and Christmas carols playing softly in the background. You are cordially invited to join me for a cup of Christmas tea..*VBS* My front door is dressed for the season. Thank goodness for the bright red bow!! I snapped these two pictures yesterday while I was out snapping the Waterwheel quilt.
Good thing I did, as this morning brings very gusty winds and driving rain. Moving in from the southwest...a blizzard is forecast. Sounds like you gals down in Kansas, Tx, and even NM have gotten it already. I know CO is snowed in and flights to Dever delayed til Saturday. I'm glad I ran my errands yesterday.
Had tea and fresh lemon bread with Betsy. She has a wonderful new quilt in progress in lime greens and reddish purples and magentas.

And I have to share this delightful by-product of WI again. A very Moo-ey Christmas to one and all. The earmuffs are great, but don't you just love those eyes??? *VBS* Posted by Picasa

Sounds like you are redady to hunker down. My little boy is stranded in CO right now. He is supposed to fly home tomorrow but doesn't look like it will happen. He is getting married on the 28th here in Portland, his bride is already here, so hopefully he will make it by then.

Christmas tea on a cold, snowy day sounds wonderful - it is always nice to do your errands before the storm sets in!

Cheers!

Hiya Finn!

Cute cow with the santa scene on it's flank... lol I'm about to have a mug of hot chocolate, instead of tea, though!

I also like the waterwheel block and how you connected them... looks great!

And I'm glad Ebby is settling down and that you've worked out her optimum eating patterns... but I DO think it's about time to amend your blog at the top there... "lover of golden retrievers AND golden eyed black cats... :)

Hugs,

Jane

I'm on my way, dear Finn, but it will take me a few minutes to get there, so please put that quilted tea cozy over the teapot until I arrive! LOL And that cow is adorable...I want one! :D

I do love the cow . . . especially the reindeer on her side. I'd love to stop by for a spot of Christmas Tea. I guess I'll have to have my own tea here.

That's a Christmas scene on the cow's side complete with buildings, Santa & reindeer. She looks like she might enjoy a spot of tea to warm her up.

Merry Christmas Finn.
