A Spot of Tea

Shall we have a spot of tea? Paula has created this beautiful vignette with a child sized wicker set and a children's tea set. Cute little bunnies sit in the chairs, seemingly conversing over gentle things. It's such a calming and serene scene.

Maybe they are sipping on chamomile tea just like Peter Rabbit. Here's a variation on Peter Rabbit's chamomile that I hope you enjoy:

Peter Rabbit Tea

1 part chamomile flowers
1/4 cup soy milk
Maple syrup to sweeten*

Place chamomile flowers in teapot and pour 1 - 2 cups boiling water over it and allow to steep for 15 - 20 minutes. Strain, then add soy milk and maple syrup. Place in your favorite teacup and enjoy in a quiet place.

*May substitute honey

    Sweet is the right word! I blogged today about a gluten-free cookie you might be interested in, if you haven't seen it.

    Sweet and adorable have already been used but...that photo is so sweet and adorable! :o)

    I love the Peter Rabbit stories. I don't think they're just for children.

    I have had a long, hard, hot day and then I found your blog, and it was like a relaxing breath of fresh air.

    I enjoyed visiting.
