Judith, Yours Truly, Poppy and Jen Thank you to the waiter for taking this photo. |
It was also a great pleasure to finally meet Judith (Lavender Cottage). She was very kind to me when I began blogging, giving bits of advice and encouragement. I enjoy reading her posts and seeing her appreciation for nature, gardens, and tea parties. If I knew five percent of what this generous Master Gardener knows about plants, I would know a great deal more than I do now.
Her friend, Jen (A Garden of Threads) is also a Master Gardener. I will now be visiting Jen's blog regularly; her photographs are remarkably beautiful and have a delicate, ethereal quality to them. Photography, I learned, is clearly a passion for her.

Our first course, followed by more than enough sweets. |
Should you have the opportunity to meet other bloggers, I suggest you take advantage of it. All it takes is a special someone to get the ball rolling.

Doing what bloggers do; keep those cameras handy! |
Thank you, Poppy, for bringing us together.

Hello Karen,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely time you ladies must have had! If I didn't live so far away, I would love to have joined you. {I live on PEI}
The Tea Room is lovely and your teacups and treats looked wonderful. I know you must have all taken home some wonderful memories {and photos} of your time together. Thank you for sharing with us and yes, Judith, Jen, Poppy and I are all blogger friends although we have never met in person yet. Have a beautiful day.
Blessings,
Sandi

What beautiful ladies! I am a bit jealous that you got to meet each other as I follow all your blogs and enjoy each one of them so much. It's nice to put your lovely faces to your blogs too! The tea room and all the food sure looks wonderful! I can't wait to read Poppy's, Judith's and Jen's 'reports' on your meeting. I have met 2 bloggers in BC and Maine and it was a wonderful experience. I'm so glad that Poppy set it up for you. Hugs. Pam
ReplyDeleteOh, that looks like so much fun. The only one I don't know is Jen so I will be off to visit right now.
ReplyDeleteSounds and looks like you had a wonderful time.. What a great thing to be able to meet and visit with bloggers that have the same interest as you.. Love your pictures too.
ReplyDeleteGood Evening Karen, How wonderful to meet Poppy and to enjoy afternoon tea with Poppy, Judith and Jen. I love visiting Poppy's blog and I so enjoy seeing her photographs. I do read Judith's blog but I am unfamiliar with Jen, so I am going to pay her a visit.
ReplyDeleteYou all look so happy and I can see that you all had a wonderful time.... and it is so lovely to see your smiling face.
Best Wishes to you.

Karen, you are so lucky! I would have loved to have been there. The tea house looks wonderful and the tea sandwiches look delicious. I visited Jen's blog and you are right, it's wonderful. I am following her now (I am already Judith's and Poppy's follower).
ReplyDeleteKaren, what fun! So nice to see 4 of my favorite blogging buddies together in one spot! I just know you had a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful day. Looks like you all had a great time :)

ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
ReplyDeleteYour photos have truly captured the warm and lovely atmosphere of our gathering! I love them! The pics of us playing with our cameras and the close up of the goodies is pure magic!
With your arrival, our little group was complete, as we settled down for a wonderful 'meet and greet'! I was not surprised to discover that your delightful personality matched the charming character of your writer's voice.
Thanks for recording this amazing adventure for us in such a fun and fabulous way!
Kisses to the fair Clair!
