{cozy up to fall....}

my drink of choice is
tea....
{black tea because i like oodles of milk in my tea
and herbal tea does not do well with milk}
i always find time for tea
so when I found this adorable packaged tea....
I knew I just had to bring it home


{illustration on side of the box}


{the other side...the tea bag took his boots off before jumping in...ADORABLE}

perfect for
friday pretties
{to see more pretties head over to I love pretty little things}

now excuse me while I
find my slippers...wrap myself in a soft warm sweater...
grap my tea..and watch the falling leaves

Hope your Friday
is just as cozy as mine

~*~ saskia ~*~ said...

These are really cute!
I do prefer herbal tea though. Your cup combines perfectly pretty with the adorable tea bags and box. I think it's sooooo important the way things are wrapped up. I can totally imagine you buying the tea box, it must have been love at first sight.
Wishing you a great weekend, have lots and lots of macaron baking fun, I'm sure you will. Much love your way, sweet Koralee. Hope Molly is doing great. xxxx

Too cute! I'm working up to getting cozy, haven't had any cool weather where I'm at, but apparently that will come to a sudden change tomorrow with rain on Sunday and I have never been more excited!!! Warm pumpkin spice cookies will be fabulous with my chamomile honey tea for my Sunday treat for sure! Fabulous weekend to you! xoxoxo

Carousel Dreams said...

Oh so sweet, Koralee - I enjoy my tea just like you, and with the ridiculous weather we are having here in Melbourne at the moment, I am indulging often with the heater cranked up!

Privet and Holly said...

THIS tea sounds
amazing!! I love
mine with milk
or half and half...
preferably in cozy
robe and slips, too!
xx Suzanne
PS: Looking forward
to the Macaron report!!

Koralee - thanks for your lovely comment on my baby blog! I am in turn delighted to have found yours, and it's absolutely beautiful to browse through on what is a freezing Spring day...here's to cups of tea and crochet (and anxiously watching a rather storm-tossed lilac....)!
