High Tea at Tea Rose Garden

How has the weather been where you live?  It has been warm and humid in SoCal this week.  It even rained yesterday. I am  thankful for the rain even though it's hard to figure out what to wear in the rain when it is warm. Today I would like to share with you a fun time that my good friend Esther and I had going to high tea together two weeks ago.  We went for high tea at 

The tea room is absolutely beautiful. 

Here we are enjoying our tea and scone, sandwiches, etc.

Here is closer look at the ono food that we enjoyed.

We surprised each other with a RAK.  I am always in awe of the creations that Esther makes for me.  She made an awesome Hawaiian themed album for me to put my pictures from my trip to Oahu. (Sorry the picture of the book is upside down.  I couldn't figure out how to put it so that the hula girl and the book are the right way.)

I love all the pages in the book.  Here is one of my favorites.

After she gave me what she made for me I felt a little embarrassed with what I made for her.  What I gave to her is not as spectacular as what she made for me.  The important thing of course is that I made my gift for her from the heart just like she made hers from her heart, right?  :)  This is what I made for her.

I put some ono teas with a stamp that I got for her from Hawaii of a cinnamon toast into the bag that I made. 

Esther and I try to get to together once a month.  I always thank the Lord for our times together and praise Him for the friendship that He has blessed us with. Thank you for dropping by to see what I have to share.  Have a blessed day and weekend!
