SHARE a CUP of TEA

"Strange how tea can represent at the same time the comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company." ~ Author Unknown

"My dear, if you could give me a cup of tea to clear my muddle of a head I should better understand your affairs." ~ Charles Dickens

"Tea pot is on, the cups are waiting,
Favourite chairs anticipating,
No matter what I have to do,
My friend there's always time for you." ~ Author Unknown

"Remember the tea kettle -- it is always up to its neck in hot water, yet it still sings!" ~ Author Unknown

"I'm sending you love and tea,
To warm your winter's day.
Think of me as you pour your cup
And all the good things we would say.
If we could be together now
Instead of miles apart,
We'd sip our teas and memories,
The sweet warmth fills the heart." ~ Susan Young

"Steam rises from a cup of tea
and we are wrapped in history,
inhaling ancient times and lands,
comfort of ages in our hands." ~ Faith Greenbowl

"Perhaps that is the true gift of a teatime celebration: it fills our cups with joy and warmth and friendship.

May the echo of the teacup's message be heard . . . not only on special occasions, but anytime friends come together." ~ Emilie Barnes in her book 'A COZY CHRISTMAS TEA'
