tea for 8

I got J to start drinking tea, and now he has a mug of it nearly every night.  If I owned this black and white fine bone china tea set (ahem, if someone wanted to buy me a belated Valentine’s Day present), maybe we could have tea parties instead of just tea for two.

I got excited about the idea of hosting a tea party after Domino featured one in its November 2007 issue.

Speaking of tea parties, my sister wondered why I registered for so many cake stands. It’s because I adore them! They make serving dessert that much more festive.

Although not for cakes, perhaps my favorite stand is this three-tiered Mariposa cupcake server that I registered for at Borsheims.
