First Words

My daughter, Christine, suggested that I should start a blog. She has a very nice one, The Simple and the Ordinary.  I struggled with a name and then decided to be inspired by and to base it loosely on the name of her friend, Liz B's site, A Chair, a Fireplace and a Tea Cozy. In my case, I put the reference to the drink at the beginning rather than at the end to avoid confusion between the sites. So I will now launch myself into the blogosphere.
