Fall....the time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale. ~ Lauren DeStefano
Welcome to Rose Chintz Cottage and another Pink Tea Time, dear friends!
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month so I am sharing a lot of pink this month.
This is what I woke up to today. It's safe to say, I'm not happy! It's simply way too early for this stuff!
I like the softer side of Fall and I love pumpkins, especially pink and white ones.
I have painted a few Baby Boos over the years. Of course some of the wee ones have to have a little sparkle such as this little pink one.
What is it about pumpkins that fascinates us so? I think it is a love for Cinderella and her pumpkin coach that lives inside of each of us since we were little girls.
I still love the story of the poor servant girl who was transformed into a beautiful princess and adored by her prince and her little critters.
A Dream is a wish your Heart makes. ~ Cinderella
And where there is goodness, there is magic. - Cinderella
I tried to use Picmonkey on my pumpkin and my computer froze twice on me. I guess the program and Mac don't like each other so I am going to have to find another photo editing site.
*Thank you, Judith, your advice worked!*
The tea party is a spa for the soul. You leave your cares and work behind. ~ Alexandra Stoddard
I am using my Aynsley teacup today. It is a favourite because I love the crocus shape with the pink roses sprinkled all over the cup and saucer. The roses inside the cup add a little something special too.
My Royal Albert New Country Roses teapot holds our tea.
I have home made Cranberry muffins. The crunchy sugar top makes them a sweet treat with the tart cranberries.
The vintage butter knife once belonged to my mother.
Happiness is sharing tea with a friend.
Happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, worn, or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude. ~ Denis Waitley
To all you beautiful ladies who have survived breast cancer, to those of you who are living with breast cancer, and to those of you who have lost a loved one to breast cancer or any cancer, my thoughts and prayers go out to you. God bless you all!
Thank you for stopping by today. I consider you my friends and I hope you enjoyed your visit.
May God give you...
For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer. ~ An Irish prayer
