We got a good down-pour todayso I had a day off from gardening. All I needed to do was a wee bit of weeding and take care of the wildlife. I mentioned last week that the chickadees are back and we have an abundance of nuthatches this summer; lots of young ones. There was a baby blue jay learning to call in the sumac tree yesterday. If you know the sound the blue jay makes you can imagine how funny it sounded coming from a young one. It's kind of a "clonk...clonk..." with all it's might.
Then two Red-breasted Grosbeaks showed up at an almost empty feeder for dinner. I don't fill the feeders at the end of the day as we have raccoons that will pull them down at night if they are not empty. But, these two did get a decent meal and I'm sure I'll see them again.
Audrey reminded me that I haven't done a tea post for awhile and she asked me what was up with that. That surprised me as I didn't think she cared :-b, so I'll invite her to join me soon and we'll enjoy a slice of banana bread, too. Well, I will. She thinks all human food is uneatable. She only loves her stinky goodness.
The beautiful saucer
It will always be a favorite.
These two tea-cups are being passed on to my youngest who has always loved them. She's quite the tea lover, too, and will give them a good home. :)
Audrey has already called it a night, I see. ;-)
"Sweet dreams, Audrey."
Enjoy your evening,
Hugs, Deb

I'll have to pick a special tea-cup if the audacious one is joining me.
My favorite pretty tea-cup is this one, sent to me awhile back by a lovely follower of my blog that said it reminded her of the mouse-house. :)
Isn't that sweet.
It's called Queen Anne
made in England. :)
If only the mouse-house was that pretty.
I love the gate and the path leading up to the house.
It will always be a favorite.
