hi ladies in today's video I will be
celebrating my blogs eighth anniversary
we will be having tea time poetry and a
special giveaway
 
 
 
 
one of the things I enjoy most about tea
time is decorating my table this is a
vintage tablecloth that was given to me
by my grandma and if you don't know
already she was the inspiration behind
the making of my blog and my youtube
channel if you want to know more about
that story I will link below my blog
post where you can go read more about
that and actually see the video too
this month I was inspired to decorate my
table with pink and roses as my theme
hosting an afternoon tea is one of my
favorite things to do it helps me
remember my grandma and my mom the times
that we had together when we would go to
tea parlors for our Mother's Day and now
I can carry on the tradition and set it
for my daughter and have tea time in my
own home
today I'm celebrating my blog
anniversary they just hit eight years to
having the little pink Casa blog and my
youtube channel and so I wanted to do
something special in this video with you
I've been wanting to have a tea time
with human what have my videos for a
long time I feel that's a big part of
what I am and what I love and what
better way to celebrate my blog
anniversary but to have a wonderful tea
time together I hope you have your cup
of tea and you're ready to read some
poetry with me I have a book that I have
a great story about that I would like to
share some poetry from it's a Victorian
posy I found this book at a thrift store
about six months ago with my husband and
when I got home I found something inside
this book that helped sue me in on where
it actually came from and this book is
from not only but Harris now Harris is
in London and it's the Tea Room the way
that I knew that is because inside of
this book is the original receipt that
came with this book the original owner
of this book apparently left the receipt
of their purchase in the book it's an
old credit card processing like the old
machines if you grew up in the 80s and
remember
like I do and it actually has a date on
here that the credit card but was
process May 1989 it's just so
interesting to know that this person was
in London at Harrods and the Tea Room
and actually purchased this Victorian
quasi book as probably maybe a souvenir
from the Tea Room that's a little bit of
the history of this book so I think it's
very special so I keep all we see in the
book just to remember it's a very
beautiful book and I'm very happy that I
found it and I was proud owner of this
beautiful treasure okay this is the one
I wanted to read to women and roses I
dream of a red rose tree and which of
his roses three as the dearest rose to
me round and round like a dance of snow
and a dazzling drift as its Guardians go
floating the women fainted for ages
sculptured in stone on the poet's pages
then follow women fresh and gay living
and loving and loved today last in the
rear flee the multitude of maidens
beauties yet unborn and all to one
cadence they circle their rose on my
rose tree
so I'm thinking of having another
teatime video in June or in summer
actually and reading some more from this
book for the season of summer and I'm
looking forward to reading it or more as
I sit here and have my cup of tea I'm so
excited for this giveaway I'm going to
show you what I'll be giving away
because this is the apron that my friend
Shelley made a subscriber and a longtime
friend that I found through my little
pink gossip blog and she's been with me
since the very beginning and so she
makes vintage aprons and such and I
asked her she would make me a special
apron for me and also for one to give to
one of you in my giveaway and so this is
part of a giveaway I have a personalized
little pink hosta apron and it's a
vintage style I've been wearing it
throughout the whole video and I just
love it so much so I'm going to be
giving this away in my giveaway it's
beautiful with roses and then I also
have a new merchandise that I just
started into me recently and I'm so
excited because I've been wanting to do
