Bees and Tea

I cannot sit and chat with you,
the way I'd like to do.
So brew yourself a cup of tea,
I'll think of you, you think of me.

Bees.....
Do you not love the way the little bees line up all nicely in a row in between the honeycomb?

This section has been a bit trickier than the rest of the piece, but watching those little bees blossom makes up for it. 

Tonight I will bind off the edge and I have decided that I am going to block each half separately as I am just too tired to try crawling around on the floor blocking and pinning a large piece.

Tomorrow I will shoot down to Patternworks in Center Harbor to pick up one of these and then I should be able to block each half on the dining room table :-)

and Tea.....

This teapot just way TOO cute, is it not?

Terry had given me that yummy hot cinnamon spice tea at SPA, but somehow
the little tea strainer thing a ma jig that I had did not do the tea justice.

So what does a girl do when in this dilemma?  Why she hops online to Adagio Tea and orders herself a new gizmo.

This little 17 oz teapot is fabulous!  It is just the right size for 2 people to enjoy a cuppa tea.

I love watching the tea brew in the clear glass pot and really really love the little infusing insert.

Hmmm....I guess that I am easily amused. 

I do want to say that I was VERY impressed with Adagio's service.  I placed my order one day with standard shipping and it was here the next.  You gotta love that!

So today on this Walk with me, Works in progress, Wordless or Wordy Wednesday, you will not get any snow pictures because for once it did not snow...........instead you get ice...beautiful lacey ice.  This grrl is ready for Spring!

I love Adagio, too! I need to get some of that cinnamon tea.

Beautiful bees! That teapot looks fabulous. I love Adagio's single-serve glass mug with the metal tea strainer, too. However, I don't much care for any of the Adagio teas I've tried.

I agree it is time for spring. The Bees are heralding her arrival!

Your bees are lovely! I'm finally back to my bee stole after a couple months on Simurgh. It's keeping me quite contented while I wait for the beads for Moroccan Days. The tea looks yummy, too. Your blog is such a peaceful little corner of the world. Thanks for that!

Your Bee Shawl is gorgeous! And I've been thinking about Marie Antoinette since seeing them (her?)at SPA.
