For lunch she took me out to this delightful little cafe that serves lunch, desserts, and of course, tea.
Everything about the place was darling. Yes, even the menu. ::winks:: Goodness, I wonder how she knew that I love all things British/English?!
We had pumpkin soup and an apple slaw salad. I also chose to have tea with my meal. One has to have tea in a tea shop, right?! I was so tempted to order some crumpets too, but since I wasn't the one paying for my meal, I wanted to be careful with what I ordered.
The booths appeared to be old church pews or something. I had to take a picture. =)
Me outside of the tea shop. The buildings in the area were built in the mid-1800's.
Ah yes, and in other news, today I did a little fabric shopping. =) I got some really cute prints for aprons. And the details of these fabrics are going to be a secret for just a couple more weeks, and then you all can see them made into their finished products. I think you'll love them as much as I love the fabric!

Cheri, I would have loved to have tea at such a charming teahouse. You're so lucky to have found such a charming place.
I'm also glad to hear about your plans for aprons. I can hardly wait to see them! I see you're wearing a jacket, must be cold there already. Here, it's HOT!!
It appears you had fun, Cheri! What a cute little shop! I've never gone to a tea shop like that, but hope to sometime.
Btw, if you ever make an apron out of that black and white teacup fabric again, let me know. :D
Dear Cheri,
What a nice little shop!!!
I hope you had a nice time.
Also I have tagged you to write six random things about yourself. You will find the rules on my blog. Thanks.

I love hearing from readers, although it seems like being away from home has been effecting my replying to them. =P
Elisabeth, I think I have one more apron cut out of that fabric in the 1930's pattern, but I have been planning on using that as a bridal gift. I'll keep my eyes peeled for more of that out-of-print fabric.
