Hello everyone -it is White Wednesday again and I have made a cake for us!
It isn't the prettiest cake you have ever seen but remember looks aren't everything and it does taste good-I promise!
Can you see my dainty new plates - I found them last week at the thrift shop for $1, each
I do love my white china too!
Those roses have been the most photographed roses-ever!
The tulips are such a treat this time of year. Now help yourself to the cake while I pour your tea.
Thank you for visiting me,
&
Enjoy your day!
Carolyn
Hi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful whites! I like your pink tulips and new plates. I am glad the card for your mother arrived. My mother is slowly feeling better :-) We are planning a trip to Maastricht (old town in the south of our country) together in May. It is the town where she was born and lived till my father found her there and took her home with him ;-).I hope that will cheer her up a little! Wish you a happy wednesday!
Lieve groet, Madelief

Everything is so beautiful! I can only look on longingly at your tablewares. I envy that you can be so focused about maintaining the Edwardian style in your house...down to every single detail such as table ware.

Hello Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI love to hear how other people live and with blogs it´s so fascinating to just pop in for a visit now and then.
A question (or several, actually) has emerged from visiting your lovely blog. Seems to me that you sip a lot of tea. I like a cup of tea myself (from boring tea bags I might add..) and coffee is nice too ;)
I´m curious about what kind of tea you prefer and is it common or shall I say a custom, where you live, to have afternoon teas?
Would you please like to share with the rest of us?
Thank you,
Sanna
What a wonderful cake, was wondering if the frosting is a boiled frosting? Looks so good and
ReplyDeletecan almost taste it.

Oh I do, I do love your whites this Wednesday, Carolyn. Everything is just perfect as always here at your gorgeous place. I'll have just a small piece of cake if you please. I'm trying very hard not to add anymore layers to myself this Winter. lol
ReplyDeletehugs
Your cake LOOKS good no matter what you say - I'd love to have a piece and a spot o' tea from those beautiful white cups/saucers. Those tulips make a lovely contrast with the white and add a touch of spring in the dead of winter.
ReplyDeleteDD
