There's something just right having afternoon tea in a old guest house.
We crossed the border into Victoria cruising down a lovely timbered road before breaking into the rich dairy country of Gippsland. It is wonderful to see the land green after more than 10 years of very dry weather. But most of the state of Victoria is still drought declared.

The Pasture by Robert Frost
"I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
(And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
I sha'n't be gone long. You come too.
I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother. It's so young,
It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
I sha'n't be gone long. You come too."

Hmm...a cup of tea.

I'll have milk in mine.
ReplyDeleteAfternoon tea for me is one of the joys of travelling, especially during a stay in a guesthouse. Add a scone or two, and it's perfection!(That and marmalade for breakfast).
ReplyDeleteTruth is I don't actually drink tea (or coffee) but my husband does and I enjoy having afternoon tea with him, preferably with scones, jam and cream.
