Happy sunny Monday to you!
You already know about my love of friends, tea, flowers, plants, and gardening. Did you know that you can plant your own tea garden, an herbal garden regardless of the size or space of your place? You can plant your garden outside or in containers on your balcony or patio. Have you ever considered planting your herbs in a window box, in a wheelbarrow, or even a bale of straw? You can invite your BFF’s to come over and help you plant and harvest your herbs. Then, you can sip and enjoy your herbal teas and concoctions together and #celebratethespecialmoments “Friends are flowers in the garden of our heart.” - Mary Davis “Gardens and flowers have a way of bringing people together, drawing them from their homes.” - Clare Ansberry Let your imagination run wild whether gardening, growing or planning; #irl personally and professionally! Is your imagination running wild today? everyday? That’s a good thing imho. Do you love gardening? Why or why not? What are your favourite herbs? Which friends will you invite for tea? 😃 😊 🤗♥️ 💕 🍵 ☕️ 🍷 🍰 🧁 💐 🌸 🌺 🌿 🪴 #thetealady #spreadingjoy #followyourdreams #imagination #growing #gardening #herbs #flowers #lovinglife #monday #monslay #mondaymotivation #boutique #afternoontea #alwaystimefortea #teatime #teastagram #seegatherer #gatheryourfriends #givingback #womeninbusiness #smallbusinessowner #womenempoweringwomen#womensupportingwomen #supportlocalbusiness #bossladies #fraservalley #vancouverrealestate

Happy Friday to you! 😃
You watched it! Right?! - The long-anticipated Friends Reunion! 😃 📺 Talk about #throwbackthursday nostalgia, emotions, memories, and cameos of several celebrities! A fun way to reminisce, regress to our young(er) years and #celebratethespecialmoments vicariously through Rachel, Ross, Chandler, Monica, Joey and Phoebe. A group of previously mostly unknown people who became widely well-known and madly loved in a worldwide famous sitcom which became a cultural phenomenon, part of popular culture and changed TV forever. You already know that meeting up with your friends, physically getting together, hanging out, reminiscing and sharing food, fun and laughter is good for the soul, mind and body. It’s actually comforting to laugh and chat about the “good ol’ days!” You want it because it’s SO good for you! Sure you have, in today’s highly digital world, a plethora of communication methods: Instagram, Facebook, Facetime, emails, texts and telephone calls, which are great! You know though, that being together, physically present and spending time together; there is no substitute. You can have family reunions, high school reunions, workplace reunions, although there is something different about your reunion with friends. All of these enrich your life! You can enjoy, reminisce, and relax with your BFF’s at your reunion, when you know that all the details are taken care of and done for you. Zero concerns or stress...good times only for you! Friends (and event planners) help you relieve stress in your life. ♥️ 💕 😊 😌 😎 🥳 🤣 🤗 🍵 ☕️🍷 🥂 🍻 🥘 🥗 🧁 🍰 Which friends will you invite? Who is your favourite Friends character?

Anna, the Duchess of Bedford (1788-1861), was a lady in waiting for Queen Victoria. She is most often credited with the creation of #afternoontea It wasn’t long before Queen Victoria adopted the idea of an afternoon tea and by 1855, the observance was firmly established. After the death of her husband, Prince Albert, it’s believed that favored cake was renamed, “Victoria Sponge Cake.” Queen Elizabeth says, “The Victoria Sponge was named after Queen Victoria, who regularly ate a slice of sponge cake with her tea, each afternoon!” Strawberries are luscious, delicious, pretty, bright red, fruits that are healthy for you!

Do a happy dance today! Do you know why you gotta dance today?? 😃 💃
Firstly, it’s Friday! You made it! Secondly, it’s “National Dance Like a Chicken Day!” 🐓 🐔 💃 😝 Did you know that? Did you know that I love chickens, roosters and feathered fowl? Did you know @the tealadyrita is also a chicken lady? @ritamargaritafarmer You have heard of The “Chicken Dance” song right? It was popular in the 80’s and 90’s; (it was reintroduced to the U.S. in the early 1970’s) we danced it at our wedding and numerous other weddings and parties over 30 years. Fun, fantastic, feathered fitness! 😜 It was composed by accordion player Werner Thomas from Davos, Switzerland, in the 1950s. (side note...did you know this tea lady and chicken lady also plays accordion and took lessons for many years?) 🪗 You can read more interesting facts @ Chicken Dance - Wikipedia Chickens and roosters are fun and funny fowl. They have distinct characteristics and personalities. Some are loud, some are quiet, some are bossy, and some are gentle in nature. They are entertaining and amusing to watch. They are eggcellent, (pun intended) loyal and unique feathered friends. They have social structures like people do. There is a “pecking order”, and “I rule the roost” among these birds; that’s where the well-known quotes/cliches came from. It’s a fact that chickens raised on a farm, with free range, free from chemicals and pesticides, natural pasture, organic compost and lots of daylight, lay lovely, delicious, and nutritious, eggs with a dark yellow-coloured yolk, sometimes double yolks. They make for tasty breakfasts, sandwiches and rich flavours in homemade baking. The rooster may crow but the hen delivers the goods. 😂 🥚 aka “Butt Nuggets” 😝 “Heard of the saying ‘I rule this roost’? It definitely has practical applications! The chickens work out their social structure in their early weeks of life, and each are definitely well aware of where they stand in the order. They can even recognise the individual faces of the others in the coop. Where they are in the pecking order often dictates how they exhibit their personalities - just like humans! The hens who rule the roost may seem fearless and boisterous, whereas the ones down the bottom are often shy. If one of the low ranked chickens tries to feed before their leaders, they may get a nasty jab to teach them a lesson! The similarities between chickens and people seem to be piling up…observe your flock outside the coop and see if you can identify who's boss!” (excerpt from Backyard Chicken Coops website.) Now you know a few fascinating and funny facts about chickens. You already know from previous posts that I love dancing! #icymi scroll through @signature_experience_events to see. 📱 👀 Now you know that I love chickens and roosters. Hope you’re doing a happy dance today and all weekend long! It’s an absolutely beautiful day; ideal for you to go outside, enjoy yourself and dance! Remember...Dance like no one is watching! Because they’re not, they’re checking their phones! 😂 📲 You can dance your fingers over to your phone and DM which funny mugs you will order for your morning laugh of the day. Here are a few fun ones: “Rise and Shine Mother Cluckers” “Until I’ve had my coffee or tea...Cluck Off!” “Yes! I really do need all these chickens!” “I poop breakfast, what’s your superpower?” “Sometimes you just gotta say cluck it and walk away” “One chicken short of crazy” “Chicken whisperer” “I have OCD - Obsessive Chicken Disorder” “I never dreamed I would grow up to be a super cool chicken lady but here I am rockin’ it” “You don’t scare me, I’ve been chased by a rooster: Yes this happened to me #irl Betcha never saw someone run so fast! Funny, not funny! Guess how many chickens I had on the farm? Clue: more than 40 and less than 100. DM your number. If you guess the right number, you will win a Brand New Voluspa “Crisp Champagne” hand poured coco wax candle! The heady aroma is intoxicating imho Rosewater, Vanilla Bean and Weathered Barrel Oak. 🙌 🥳 👏 Do you love chickens, roosters and birds? Do you love cats and dogs?

Imagine how will feel knowing you are empowering and supporting others? 😌 Which teas, tasty treats and tea accessories will you order for your #teaboxes to share for #mothersday, and for you and your friends to sip and savour while you are gathering safely, learning, working, zooming and/or relaxing in your personal metime?
