now if only you were by the sea.....

thanks to my great friend kathy

who happens to be the queen behind valley ridge art studio

I have a new love in my life

~~

I met up with her on tuesday at a tea house that I've never been to before

and

wow

was I smitten

~~

and

now you're probably hoping that I have pictures to show from our 3 hour talk fest

right

?

well since my brain was all damp and foggy from the rain coming down in sheets

that's going to be my excuse for leaving the house camera-less

~~

BUT

yesterday I went back and took my hubby with me so I could show him my new love

and

I did have my little point and shoot with me

which we goofed around with while drinking our tea

~~

the

tea room

I picked for us

is in the front window of the tea house overlooking the street

and

it's dressed in silky fabrics in shades of magenta and aubergine and lots of pillows and cushions and

the ceiling is silky

too

and

of course

to be in any of the rooms you have to be barefoot

~~

SO COOL

{can you feel my love}

~~

so we drank tea and ate little cookies and I wrote in my purse journal and he answered some emails

and

we smiled

~~

{kim and julie....guess where I'm taking you this summer}
