Practicing for Valentine Tea

It's been years since my mother passed on, but there isn't a day that I don't think of her.  I have her bible, she read and studied it often. I found this vintage valentine in it. It was given to her by a friend before she was married to my father in 1940.  The signature  was written in pencil and faded so I couldn't make out who it was 

from.

This Saturday I am having my three girls and two granddaughters for  a Valentine Tea.  Today I was trying out a few things to see if I wanted to use them in my menu.  I think they turned out pretty good.

"Teach your children to choose the right path,and when they are older, they will remain upon it". Proverbs 22:6

I'm sure this verse isn't talking about Tea but I'd like to think it's a way of teaching them the importance of finding time for each other.

I had to try them out!  I bought the large camp size marshmallows and melted white and milk chocolate. I dipped them in the white chocolate first and let them harden and then drizzled the chocolate over them.  I put sprinkles on some and candy hearts. 

Even tho the weather temperature is near 70, it is still a good day for a cup of Tea.

" Thank God for Tea! What would the world do without Tea?

How did it exist?  I am glad I was not born before Tea".            ..Rev. Sidney Smith.

Wishing you a Blessed Day,

Sylvia
