discussion with my daughter yesterday wide eyed bushy tailed and feeling renewed from her recent travels she s in the job market i ve noticed how much she says she enjoyed frequenting little teahouses in england and how often she said she thought of me over there when sipping tea from quaint enticing little cottages not to mention some beautiful china pieces she brought home hmmmm i came right out and asked her yesterday would you like to start a teahouse with me in the valley her eyes lit up she does we spent hours chatting away with all the possibilities she jumped right on the net and started looking for quaint queenslander style houses they re around they exist we just need to find the one we d be open for the weekend only i d cook during the week she d be waitress decorator helper her boyfriend also in the job market can be barista and general maintenance guy he used to make coffee at max brenner we d use one of the rooms as a gallery with nicka s work she can go ballistic with making greeting cards postcards calendars framed pics and so on as for my menu i won t even begin haha inception stage at the moment we do need hubby s approval when we re feeling

to pinterest january 2 2014 precious pressie how lucky do i feel my precious daughter brought home this precious tea set from whitby in england sounds like it activated the stress scale quite a bit with having to make it home in one piece make it home in one piece it did it was the grand finale pressie for me on xmas day as i lifted the lid off the beautifully packaged gold box a piece of immaculate history stared back at me it s in extraordinary condition i couldn t find a blemish i m told it was made sometime during the edwardian era making it over 100 years old i hold it steadily very steadily and i imagine it was made before ww1 started before the sinking of the titanic and i wonder if this cups kind were served on the titanic who knows and so a new chapter begins here with me in australia will it ever be used hmmm i m weary at this stage but hopefully i ll muster the courage to use sip from it one day i must feeling fortunate thank you darling daughter love mother x
