Summer memories

As the weather gets warm, I am starting to dream about summer in Lithuania , where my home and heart is. Especially that I already booked my tickets for whole 2 months starting on beginning of July. Today I wanted to share with you some of my last summer photos.


This is my little garden cottage house.


From other side.



These arches we builded last summer. You can see Dahlias are blooming, my grandmother's favourite flowers.


This is my english rossarium, I am thinking to plant some more foxgloves, lady mantel,  etc to make it look like cottage style.


This arch were built few years ago and has honeysuckle and clematis growing from both sides. I really like the smell of honeysuckle!


Lovely colours.


This is how the house looks from the street. My grandma still lives there, but one day it will belong to me.
Thank you for visiting me today. Althought I didn't share any tea related things, I hope you enjoyed watching my photos while drinking your favorite cup of tea.

Downton Abbey themed tea

I really enjoy watching Downton Abbey episodes. Couple of days ago I saw when hostess is serving tea in very beautiful teacups. Oh, but wait a moment, I have those cups in my cupboard! So today to join teacup Tuesday I am serving you Downton Abbey tea!



Such a lovely Royal Doulton Carlyle pattern.




Walnut cake anyone?



I am so happy, that I have full 12 place dinner and tea sets of this pattern!


Thanks for visiting me today!

Back to Valentine's day

I know, I am late with this post, but I was very busy before and on Valentines day, as it was my birthday, so many things to do, many food to prepare.
But now everything is over, so stop and enjoy cup of tea and a sweet treat together with me.

I really like this Royal Albert OCR pattern,  and have two different types of cups. These I like most, because they are bigger and easier to hold.


I put a little glass, in case you would like something bubbly.



I really like pretty lace linens. 



Valentines day is all about love and roses, isn't it?  I like potted most, but bunches are welcome too.
Thank you for visiting me today and see you soon!

sunny day tea

 Hello to all this cold, but sunny day. Last night we had -2, so this morning everywhere were white frost.
 As my little daughter is sleeping and son is at school I decided to set a table and to show you my very new tea cup. Whilst reading other blogs I used to see some of you have nice rosebud china, and I felt in love for it. After looking in auctions I found very nice rosebud china trio. It looked so lovely,  that I had to get it. It's Duchess bone china.





You can also see my new silver plated tea set.



Help yourself if you want something sweet.


Do you see me on creamer?




Thank you for visiting me today and have a nice weekend!

Back to reality

As I said last time, there was my last tea this winter (as well as a spring) in my garden house. Our holidays is over and it's time to come back to reality. We (me, my hubby and our two kids) live in London, United Kingdom. Almost 8 years already. But our hearts are always there, in Lithuania and one day we will go back.
Here is a plane, waiting for us


And this is my son, Paulius, saying his goodbye to grandma.


Now all of us will start waiting our summer holidays :)
Thank you for visiting me today.
