Tea for Two

...or for however many people want to join her!

Now that her new table has arrived in her room, Isabelle has taken to entertaining any and all of her housemates with tea parties. They are quite lavish affairs, with fine plastic cups, saucers and wine glasses for all attendees, plus there is always a lovely imaginary cake that she is happy to slice and serve you. These parties had previously been held in other parts of the house with little to no incident, especially since the tea was also imaginary at the time. But special thanks go out to Isabelle's gran, who introduced actual water to the mix the last time she visited. Since then, Isabelle only insists on the real thing, meaning towels are now a tea party necessity and the event quickly becomes an exercise in spill maintenance. Next time you are in our neighbourhood, drop by Isabelle's for a nice cup of tea and some conversation, she would love to have you!

Cheers, ballerina!


Do you take sugar with that?


Tidy up time!

Tell Isabelle I have also introduced Olan to the joys of a "real" tea party and we also have issues with a tea pot that doesn't always pour well. Oh well, another skill to master. All famous prince and princesses need to know how to "pour" in case the queen summons us unexpectedly!
