"Tea to the English is really a picnic indoors." ~ Alice Walker
Tea break...
Fine, fine Paul Smith china produced to original Victorian values.
Hand painted and glazed, the gold edging is equivalent of 22 carat gold.
Does tea taste better in a stripy?

Love love love macarons!
tea should taste fabulous in those cups! and those sweet treats too! isn't tea the best meal of the day?
Stripy or not, but it's got to be proper china to make tea taste its best (and to please the eye, of course).
Love macaroons...

I haven't had breakfast and now I am very hungry...
Blessings and prayers, andrea
ooo those macarons look lush - don't think i've ever tried one but I really really should...

Oh you made me think of macarons again and so wish I had one - so many fabulous flavors and aren't they pretty - all the colors. Everything is just lovely.

*yumm* i wish tea breaks were popular here too! to have half an experience like that you have to travel to a "tea house"! boooo!
Yummy treats and china!
Love these! Gorgeous! XOXO
Adore the photos. Tea is the spa for the soul. I love that design!
Tea! Everything tastes good with tea! I love sweets too much for my own good! xxoxoxo
I love macaroons! I keep thinking I might try to make some on my own!
Why dont' americans do something in the afternoon... the English have tea, the people of Mexico have siesta's.. why dont' we have something relaxing and enjoyable? I would like to start a new tradition.. tea in the pm! Get a favorite cup and a little pot of your favorite tea..sit back and enjoy!
Lovely pics. And thanks. I think I will have a cup now.
I love that tea cup set! Its elegant and so colorful
I want France!
so I can go have macarons again.
Lavender and rose were so good.
and seem perfect for tea. :-)
Such a cute pic of macaroons, and the rose cupcakes are adorable x
I'm going to go with yes on that one. And that's the second great Alice Walker quote I read today. Love it. I think I was English in a former life.
Love that quote!
Beautiful pic's, makes me want to get the tea set out.

Hi Susan,
I do like a cup of tea first thing in the morning.
Also like Paul Smith and the stripey china is lovely.
Also the macaroons look delicious.

I am an absolute tea snob. It does taste better in a nice cup - and the china by Paul Smith is gorgeous.
Those pink macaroons make me miss paris:(
Thanks everyone for joining me on my tea break, beautiful!
Nora, love Paul Smith, my kind of designer.
Macaroon, cake, great china and tea ~ what else does a girl want!
Again, thank you for joining me!
