Snow tea day

It is snowing. It started snowing yesterday afternoon, and it's snowing again. It's the kind of snow that produces a slushy mess, so


today I'm going with hot chocolate. It seemed like the right thing for this snowy Tea Tuesday. The flowery mug is a reminder that spring is actually here.

Kimmie has all the links, so please check out what my tea drinking friends are up to today. I suspect some of them have had a bit of snow, too.

  24. Oh my! I couldn't do snow. I'm a southern girl now living in a desert country. Although I gotta say, at least the snow does melt away and spring awakens beneath it -- we just had a sand tsunami that choked everything in its path. The cleanup from that is awful. Have a wonderful Wednesday. :) Tammy

  32. Snow! That must be a little odd for you a this time of year. We could get a little late tonight. We still have some patchy areas of snow but mostly just VERY SATURATED ground. Squishy.
    Hope all is well with you!

  35. Greetings Bleubeard and Elizabeth,

    Being a big tea drinker, I too love to have a hot chocolate from time to time, especially in the evening.

    If I had stopped by earlier I would have know all the wonderful things happening in you life and the visit to California. I had to smile when I saw the picture you took of being stuck in traffic for which so many parts of California is know for.

    Wishing you all the best,
    Miss Kitty and Egmont
