"It was George Eliot who earnestly inquired, 'Reader, have you ever drunk a cup of tea?' There is something undeniably heartwarming and conversation-making in a cup of steaming hot tea. . . It is an ideal prescription for banishing loneliness. Perhaps it is not so much the tea itself, as the circle of happy friends eager for a pleasant chat."
Book of Etiquette 1921
Absolutely gorgeous picture!! It goes well with the quote from Book of Etiquette.
ReplyDeleteI have both volumes of this book. It's a wonderful resource, isn't it? :)
