A cuppa . . .


"In Ireland, you go to someone's house, and she asks you if you want
a cup of tea. You say no, thank you, you're really just fine. She asks if
you're sure. You say of course you're sure, really, you don't need a thing.
Except the pronounce it ting. You don't need a ting. Well, she says
then, I was going to get myself some anyway, so it would be no trouble.
Ah, you say, well, if you were going to get yourself some, I wouldn't
mind a spot of tea, at that, so long as it's no trouble and I can give you
a hand in the kitchen. Then you go through the whole thing all over
again until you both end up in the kitchen drinking tea and chatting.

In America, someone asks you if you want a cup of tea, you say no,
and then you don't get any damned tea.

I like the Irish way better."

Short and sweet today . . . after answering my four questions yesterday for the 
"virtual blog tour" I guess I ran out of words for today, gasp! ;)

Our prompt today is "a cuppa" and I used my grandmother's antique cups and saucers,
with some of the fallen rose petals from my Belinda's dream roses. The petals still smell good!

I actually took this one in January and don't remember the textures I used on this one. Since
there was nothing to photograph in January really, I started playing with some still life's and
have had a little love affair with stacking cups and saucers.

"Tea for Two?"

I may be the only one who photographs my caterpillars as props! haha
But in my defense, I didn't have my enclosure set back up yet and they were
looking for a spot to make their silk pad to hang from.

This was a good way to keep an eye on them.... :)
Two birds with one stone kinda thing, ya know?

Have a great day,
Love, Kim
