Hello sweet friends!
I'm starting this Monday by inviting you to have some tea in my kitchen, my fave place and where we spend most of our days, eating, cooking, baking, watching the news, or enjoying the view out the windows... so why not invite you too for tea!
I can serve you coffee, tea and some goodies, whatever you prefer. I can make you little sandwiches too! (my wishful thinking, pretend).
I hope you like my tea setting for you... so please, come inside!
What made me invite you for tea is that I've been tweaking a little... so now my coffee station is by the TV, in front of our breakfast nook. Before I had cook books and my cookie jar in this space. |
I chose for you my Mil's antique teacups from her wedding china and are under the cloche. They also have pink roses as the table topper. |
Some goodies in my 'Lady Carlyle' tier and some cheese in that small covered stand. |
Our kitchen is not big, but not small either and I love to spend time here, it's really very comfortable and warm, I think. The door you see leads to the laundry room. |
People here have the custom to serve on warm days, some cold fruit sherbet before tea, or even ice-cream...whatever you prefer! |
Some of you might remember my Chinese teapot collection I keep in the window sill... I so enjoy looking at them. |
Coffee is ready in the back, if you rather. |
Fabby, veo que te gustan las violetas de los Alpes o ciclamen.A mi también me encantan. Te cuento por si no lo sabés que se riegan con cubitos de hielo así me duran de una temporada para otra. Cuando se ponen feas las dejás en reposo hasta fines del verano y allí las empiezas a mojar y verás como brotan.

I always enjoy the teapots in your window! Such a marvelous view. Everything for your tea looks wonderful. I think you have the perfect sized kitchen. I like your little pantry, too.
ReplyDeleteFabby: Your pantry is amazing. I would love to have all the room you have. Always a feast for my eyes when I visit you. Have a great week. Blessings, Martha
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your kitchen Fabby. It is always the coziest place in the house, and yours is no exception! I love the Lady Carlisle pattern too. would love to visit with you in your kitchen and look at that view. I'll bet that cookie jar is for your grandchildren :)

Your table setting and desserts look so inviting. Kitchens always seem to be where we gravitate to. You're kitchen is very attractive and well thought out. This skinny pantries are great! Lots of storage goes into such a narrow spot. We had one in our motorhome years ago and I was always amazed at how much it held. Thanks for sharing- XO, Liz
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tea setting! Your pantry is wonderful. What a great idea. Thank you for sharing at Tuesdays at Our Home! Have a great week! Maria
ReplyDeleteDearest Fabby,
ReplyDeleteHow special to have a cookbook from your Mother-in-law! Also lovely how you present the lovely wedding china of your MIL under that cloche. Always a pleasure with you at table...
Hugs,

Fabby, The cabinets in your kitchen are lovely. The warm wood tones and the pattern of the marquetry are so pretty. The "slit" pantry is wonderful, I would love to have one in my kitchen. The pretty flowered tea cups in the cloche and the tea service look so inviting. I would love to sit down and have tea with you. I enjoyed the tour of your kitchen, it is nice to see where you bake all of those lovely treats for your friends and family.
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen is so beautiful Fabby...I am in love with it! I would love a tea with you :)

I am visiting from Charm at Home and so glad I did! The tea table was dressed beautifully, the little dainties were tasty and the coffee nice and hot like I like it. I also wanted to send my love to the late Benito. We have a pug as well and my heart melted to see yours! I love those creatures!
