(click title to leave a comment) Merry Christmas! We've just finished our last "Teatime with Mrs. Cracthit"  Program for the year... What fun we had! We Celebrated "Mr. Fizzywig Style" with much Feasting and Laughter! Midway we had a visit from Mrs. Crachit, She shared about the "miraculous" change of Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge... The Christmas Carol is a Heart-Warming Tale  of Love and Redemption... "Old Scrooge learned to keep Christmas well... and if there is any man alive who posesses that knowledge, I would have to say it is him. And may that truely be said of all of us!" We hope to see you all again next year in this wonderful timeless Christmas Tradition! Merry Christmas and as dear Tiny Tim would say, "God Bless Us, Everyone!"

After making a pot of Candy Cane Chai the other day, I ran downstairs to grab something, upon my return this little guy was helping himself! As a matter of fact, there were 3 others partaking in the pot, leaving me only a couple of sips! This delicious tea is a wonderful blend of aromatic spices and fragrant peppermint...it will for sure be a winner in your tea pantry this Holiday. Our first shipment has already sold out, but a second one is due any day...call for yours soon before we are sold out! 641-342-1547.
