Meant to mention that now while my daughter and I do still have teatime at home now and then, since she was about 12, she has also felt very excited and special when I have taken her to our favourite little tearoom. It's in this quaint little town of Sparta, Ontario and it's just always such a lovely day. The same conversation still flows and the company is lovely! Also, you might want to check out one of my fledgling blogs, The Little Red Apple Tearoom, for some delightful recipes. http://islandtearoom.wordpress.com/ <abbr><em>Cyn’s last blog post..<a href="http://cynsreality.wordpress.com/2009/07/01/caaaaa-naaaa-daaaa-we-love-you/" rel="nofollow">Caaaaa-naaaa-daaaa We Love You</a></abbr></em> am loving this whole thread!!!!

I forgot to mention that $1 from each sale goes to "Room to Read," which benefits educational programs for children worldwide. Gotta love that. <abbr><em>Kelly Feinberg’s last blog post..<a href="http://notionsandthreads.blogspot.com/2009/06/birthday-boy.html" rel="nofollow">Birthday Boy!</a></abbr></em> Thanks for your follow up posts, Megan and Trisha.

I looked it up immediately and was pleased to discover they are blends from"Republic of Tea," a maker you can count on for quality. Your little boy has great taste! It's wonderful that you have begun enjoying tea parties with him at this early age. <abbr><em>trisha’s last blog post..<a href="http://myolio.wordpress.com/2009/06/29/how-bout-another-outing/" rel="nofollow">how ’bout another outing?</a></abbr></em> Kelly, thanks for the great recommendation of “Little Citizen’s” tea.

I recently stumbled upon "Little Citizen's Herb Tea," a tea specially blended for children. My 1 year old loves the Cheery Apple Rooibos tea and I love having tea parties outside on a blanket with him already (when weather permits--we're in the thick of heat and humidity too). I'm looking forward to a growing tradition of tea in our family. <abbr><em>Kelly Feinberg’s last blog post..<a href="http://notionsandthreads.blogspot.com/2009/06/birthday-boy.html" rel="nofollow">Birthday Boy!</a></abbr></em> Thanks so much for the lovely post on tea.

All the more reason for families here in the States to take up (or, in your case, continue) this grand tradition. <abbr><em>Megan’s last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/simplekids/~3/H3wJ8Qzp6gw/" rel="nofollow">Honoring the Power and Pleasure of Tea with Your Family</a></abbr></em> @steadymom, I think it is such a shame that one of the great cultural traditions of many countries worldwide is so lost on us today.
