Tea of the Month Club #3
The last entry for my three-month order from the Tea Time Club arrived. Although, due to being shipped overseas from UK, it was late for our St. Patrick’s Day celebrations here in the states, I still enjoyed the Irish-themed goodies.

Highland Tea
As has become my annual tradition after attending each Maine Highland Games, I buy some scones and tea at the games and enjoy them thoroughly the next day at home with my Tain Pottery with the Glenaldie thistle pattern.

Celtic Themed Tea
I am sure I’ve posted FAR too many “Celtic Themed” teas, but I canna help myself. After baking up some mint-chocolate cookies using my Celtic designed cookie press, I grabbed some Celtic Cottage tea from Trail Lodge Teas. Of course, I had to use my Tain Pottery Scottish teapot, teacup and saucer. Okay, so the…
