It is a wet and windy day here today so it is cozy to be indoors. We even have our wood pellet stove going to take the dampness out of the air.It is hard to believe that some of you are still getting hot weather. Anyway, it is time for a cup of tea - can you join me?
I made some cranberry orange scones and they are still warm.
I like mine with some whipped cream and homemade peach preserves.
Today,I used some brown and white transferware dishes with my cream tea cups. The little teapot came from Winner's.

That looks so good Carolyn! I've never made peach preserves but I think I'll give plum a try. Our neighbour has a plum tree and has some plums to share.
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely blog you have. I have enjoyed visiting with you today very much.
Your Grand-baby is as sweet as sugar. I have two Grands and they fill my heart with love too.
I have become a follower so I can keep in touch.
Enjoy your day,
Elizabeth
Carolyn....The scones look so delicious! They look especially nice on the pretty transferware!~Patti
ReplyDeleteYou must have the best will-power ever. If I baked all this yumminess, I would weigh a ton...maybe two. It always looks so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
June
Oh, Carolyn, there you go again just making magic! How lovely and delicious this is.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Hi Carolyn
ReplyDeleteThe tea and scones have made be feel a lot better, although I wouldn't normally eat fruit scones, I prefer cheese ones, maybe next time!! Jackie.
Everything looks so nice and delicious, you are such a great hostess.
ReplyDeleteNo rain today in my part of the Netherlands but it's getting colder over here.
Have a great day, Jannet
Yummy scones and a yummy grandaughter!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, I just know you made those scones for me! Peach is my favorite flavor for tea and for adding little dried pieces to my scones...do you use the dries, or fresh? Your brown and white transferware is beautiful and perfect for a cool autumn day. Lovely, lovely, lovely!
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you,
Mary
Those look so good! What a beautiful table setting too! I love Peach Preserves! My favorite!
ReplyDeleteOh so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could join you, but had better not today. I have a terrible head cold!
Your pics are always so lovely.
God bless,

Hi Carolyn, what a beautiful post. Your scones look delicious... I would love to have some thanks.. we too are having wind and rain, perfect to be inside. On the stove you'll find potatoes cooking for cheesy potato soup... I hope you're enjoying your evening..

I did indeed enjoy my snack! But I enjoyed mine in the heat. It is still t-shirts and shorts weather here. And terribly muggy. I think we're going to get a little change soon. And it will certainly be welcome!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
c, all your china has to stay with me... thanks for visiting.
ReplyDeleteThat's the one cozy good thing that comes with fall...a cup of tea and something homemade!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the tea and scones so much especially with the cream and peach preserves. I was pretending I was in England having a cream tea!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Rhondi
Everything looks so beautiful, the dishes, the scones and your preserves even look pretty. Have I mentioned how much I love your blog lately.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day,
Ginger
lovely scones The chill is coming to the prairie and so it will be time for pots of tea (rather than pitchers) and scones. Your pictures make me so hungry!
ReplyDeleteLove your dishes!
Oh yes, the tea was great and the scones were delicious. That was a nice tea. Have a nice day
ReplyDeleteLooks like the tasty, because you could get right to the coffee. Beautiful pictures with very magical dishes. It again looks like a decorative paper.
ReplyDeleteBest regards Melontha
Your pictures are again so vibrant;I feel I could reach over and take a bite or that scone; thank you. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteRita
oh my those look so good!
ReplyDeleteGood enough to eat. Love the teapot.
ReplyDeleteOh Yum! I love the brown and white transfer ware. They are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn, I enjoyed your tea and scones. Your scones looks different from our scones, but very tasty! Your preserve looks delicious as well. I have opened one of my jars of gooseberry preserve this week. I made it in the summer. It is a bit sour, but tastes healthy. I think it will be fine with some scones or sweet bread.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend! Lieve groet, Madelief

Carolyn...would you care to share the scone recipe? I always mean to make cranberry orange scones but never quite get around to figuring out how much orange...zest or juice...or both.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Janet
Yummy!! you must post the recipe. I love brown and white transferware. You did good in a purchase like that at winners.
ReplyDeleteI think we all hate to see summer pass us by, but days like these give us an excuse to just kick back and relax. Everything looks absolutely delicious!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the oh so lovely visit.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your flowers and felt like I was having tea with you, and lying in the hammock, I could almost feel the breeze. The music was soothing as was your viriual hospitality. Thanks so much, many blessings.....Beckie
HI Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI've been sitting out on my deck tonight browsing through your lovely posts - what a beautiful way to escape... Your scones and preserves have my mouth watering!
Hugs,
