    Traveling Tea Tuesday

    May 17, 2011 - By 

    Due to my crazy busy schedule lately and all the rain we had last week, I never got further than my front yard with the traveling tea cup.

    I had plans for our adventures…little chip and all.

    I had hoped to get to the Arboretum and the docks where the lake cruisers are moored but alas it was not to be.

    Since we finally had sun for a couple of days I got the deck staining finished!
    See the nice brown railing in the below picture….
    What a job!  2.5 gallons of stain…ugh my aching back!

    I did get a couple of little things done to include in our traveling  tea cup package.

    A crochet dishcloth for handwashing those delicate tea sets and a magnet with a reminder….

    Stop by Kimmies today and see what’s happening with Tea Tuesday.
