The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me. ~ Psalm 16:6 nasb

Tea Talk -- How Precious His Thoughts


Welcome to my home!
Sit and share a cup of tea with me as we encourage each other in the Lord.
To participate, click on Ruth's button above.


I'm having...a cup of coffee, which is rare for me.  I'm using my everyday Pfaltzgraff tea cup in the Ocean Breeze pattern.  I shot several images of bubbles in my tea and coffee cups, and here, I think, is the final one.


I'm feeling...just fine!

On my mind...is all the information from yesterday's photography seminar.  I'm thinking about lots of things to apply to both my business and my photography.  I met some very nice people and learned so much from several professional photographers who freely shared their time and knowledge.  I'm trying to process everything while on information overload!

I leave you with...a verse about God's thoughts, since I have been thinking a lot.  :)

How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand.
When I awake, I am still with You.
Psalm 139:17-18 NASB


Chocolate biscotti, made by Miss Jo, a nice accompaniment to tea!

One more note--after reading the caption above, I realize that the phrase a nice accompaniment to tea is a misplaced modifier which should properly be placed next to the word biscotti.  But I'm leaving it where it is, because I think Miss Jo would also be a nice accompaniment to tea.

TT--A Calmer Week


A hot, but lovely, day on which to share a cup of tea!  If you'd like to participate, and to find out more, click on Ruth's button above!!

I'm having...a rare cup of coffee today.  My ds Jacob sells Organo Gold coffee and I'm having a cup.  It's pretty much a lot of sugar and cream, with a little coffee.  (That's why I rarely drink it!)


My teacup is new!  Long story short, I bought some Gibson "everyday" china, and ended up getting a whole set free.  I love using the teacups when I have company for tea.  Being a practical homemaker, I love the fact that I can use the teacups--and the dishes--whenever I want to go fancy.  Plus, white goes with everything!

A quick "funny"--I've already sipped some coffee out of the above cup!  I have a habit of filling my cup literally to the brim.  I then bend down and delicately slurp out enough until I can safely carry my cup to my seat.  :)

I'm feeling...much calmer this week.  I think we're starting to settle into a comfortable routine with homeschooling and housework.  I'm still trying to fit exercise into a workable routine, hopefully over the next few weeks.

On my mind...I'm always making mental lists, some of which get transferred to paper.  My list of to-do things is growing, but I keep plugging away.  I know that the Lord will allow me to do those things that fit appropriately into my day.  And on the days when I feel like I haven't accomplished anything on my list, I know the Lord had His list for me!

Leaving you with...a quote I found by Martin Luther.

Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace,
so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it
a thousand times.

Be sure to visit Ruth's blog to stay for a cup of tea!!

Back to life,
