There is a great deal of poetry and fine sentiment in a chest of tea.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, Letters and Social Aims

There is a slight change to the A Return to Loveliness blog party.

Typically, I share and celebrate different things I find in the back issues and current issues of Victoria Magazine.

I will continue to do that.

Occasionally, I have celebrated teacups, teapots and tea parties with a number of other bloggers who thoroughly enjoy the sublime practice of taking tea.

To that end, I have decided to combine these two things in my posts – Victoria Magazine and Tea Time.

The change is ever so slight, but I wanted to join in and provide another place for tea loving bloggers to gather.

My favorite Tea Time blogging parties are:

Rose Chintz Tea Time Tuesday 

Martha's Favorite Teacup Tuesday 

Artful Affirmations Teacup Tuesday

Sweetology's Tea Time Tuesday

Antiques and Teacups Tuesday's Cuppa Tea

Miss Spencer's Teacup Thursday

                                                   Bernideen's Friends Sharing Tea

If you haven’t joined in, you will be pleasantly delighted to find exquisite tea time posts.

This week’s post celebrates the January 1994 issue of Victoria Magazine.

I love to bring flowers indoors, but it seems all the more lovely in wintertime.

I am sharing with you my newest Mary Kay Coffee Mug as well as my Mary Kay Teacup. I shared this weekend my Delight in receiving the mugs as a Christmas gift.

Paired with these exquisite miniature roses from a local grocer, a warm cup of coffee and pink iced scones – 

my teatime break this week with Victoria Magazine 
is sublimely rosy-pink.

Thank you for visiting, I hope you join in – you may share anything you wish that is lovely in your life!
