today we celebrated two birthdays with a drive out to Rosenort and High Tea at Lilystone Cafe;-)… it is becoming an annual tradition as this was our third visit…

and to top it off, we were there on this exact day last year… how cool is that…

this photo was from our last visit…

today we enjoyed the items on the menu and had a variety of delicious teas to go with the tasty treats… I had one of everything, lol…

my tea was Peach Apricot which I just love…

we’ve always found the staff happy to deal with our food issues, and eager to please…

even though it was 38°C, (crazy weather we are experiencing) the room we were in was very comfortable…

such a lovely way to spend an afternoon with this amazing group of women;-)…

what a delightful day… got up, dressed, put out all the cushions and had breakfast on the back deck, admiring the ten or so poppies waving their lovely heads in the flower bed…

Hilda the Gardener arrived and started weeding and tidying everywhere…

a friend picked me up and we drove to Rosenort to eat and do a little shopping…

we had a delicious lunch at Lilystone Cafe, where we both picked up a few treats to bring home for later… I was happy to see them making great use of technology to take orders and prepare the bills… staff were friendly and treated us like family…

then we headed over to Lilystone Gardens, where we engaged in a bit of retail therapy, including a Christmas present… they are just now recovering from flooded fields and roads…

after an enjoyable return drive to the city we stopped at her house to check out some recent work and her very lush garden…

home, a wander around the garden to admire how tidy it is, and a sit down on the deck with a cup of tea and my book…

;-)…
