The tea house was a home run. It's newly opened in an historic building our local downtown area. Vintage EVERYTHING. Owner lived in London (with her British husband) for years. Totally felt like the real deal high tea.
This was my first time sitting inside. My girlfriend requested a private table so we were alone in a beautiful back area. The food was fantastic. Scones with the fixings, GF quiche, tea sammies and lots of little desserts. The tea was nice too (although drinking hot tea in a hot room in hot-lanta set off both of us with hot flashes lol).
After we visited a European fragrance shop that focuses on non-toxic ingredients (hence the European connection). I got a new perfume with a funny name -- I am Trash. It smells great, but the scent doesn't last very long.
Then headed to her garden for a tutorial. Got some good information. Community gardens are such a great option. I live outside the area or I'd love to try it.
What a difference a year makes for birthday fun.
Rounded out the day with a catch-up call with an old friend and a chat with my aunt.
Since the delivery screwup, I have a blank slate day today. It's a rest day for my workout so I'll bring the dogs to the park. I ran there yesterday with a bit of guilt that they didn't get some outside time. The roads are too hot to walk by mid-morning.
I'll run a few errands too and take some quiet time. Yesterday was FUN, but lots of socializing. I could use a down day.
Have a great day and stay well. Later gators.
