In the Perkins family we believe that life is made up of the little everyday things. Things like enjoying a sensational cup of tea, Manny seeing his face in the mirror for the first time, or finding a bush turkey under the deck. Even though we delight in the little things it is often the big things that end up in letters and emails (Chris has a cold, I almost stepped on a snake - all the boring stuff). These Joyful Jottings are going to change all of that. So we invite you, dear friends and loved ones, to share in some of our precious everyday moments as a family. Enjoy!

Ahhhhh tea...

 


I have always loved tea. I miss my beautiful blue willow teapot in New Zealand. And just randomly I felt the need to share this useless bit of information with you :-)
 If you are a tea drinker too then I can't recommend the Dilmah Exceptional brand enough, it's SO delicious and...well...tea-like! And if you are a mother then I definitely recommend tea! I've never before understood the significance of a mother who says she put her feet up and indulged in a hot cuppa. Well believe me, now I understand!

"Another novelty is the tea-party, an extraordinary meal in that, being offered to persons that have already dined well, it supposes neither appetite nor thirst, and has no object but distraction, no basis but delicate enjoyment."
