You actually make me think of Renee Zellweger. I'm a fan. :)<br /><br />How amazing was Karma?!! It's like they know who is family. Our German Shepherds were the same when we brought my Uncle back with us from England after a three month holiday many years ago. The dogs treated him no different to the rest of us even though he was a complete stranger to them. They knew! <br /><br />Lovely goodies from Haiying's ETSY shop. My fave is the cup with the fish. I've never tried that type of tea but I do drink green tea quite regularly. It looked quite pretty steeping in the pot.<br /><br />I'm beginning to feel half normal again so hope to be visiting more regularly.<br /><br />Have a lovely week, my friend,<br />Serena xoSerena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-17247126503352044402012-08-13T06:39:41.382-05:002012-08-13T06:39:41.382-05:00What a joyful post filled with family, love, and t...What a joyful post filled with family, love, and tea goodies!<br /><br />You must've been so happy with the visit - lucky you!<br /><br />I love your tea bits & pieces. I bought a tiny tea cup with koi on it 2 weeks ago - the last one in the store. It is all green, with the koi in relief around the sides. I am convinced tea tastes better in pretty cups!<br /><br />Am so envious of the ink stone water pot!Cindy Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423706050014070124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-60669950437154526852012-08-12T17:38:03.881-05:002012-08-12T17:38:03.881-05:00I loved the whole post... those tea cups and water...I loved the whole post... those tea cups and water pot are simply gorgeous.... and the tea blooms are pretty special... they really are quite a celebratory thing are't they.... and usually quite mild in flavour... and loved loved loved seeing all your family shots and reading about the weekend... it looks like you had a wonderful time...<br />xxTracey FKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052306649633275907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-7541450195993942212012-08-12T08:17:52.628-05:002012-08-12T08:17:52.628-05:00What a wonderful post!

I finally have a face to go with the name which is great. You look so young for 61. I would never have guessed your age. You have a beautiful smile that looks like it would light up any room you're in. :) <br /><br />Have never seen that kind of tea before. When I was in China adopting Sophia, I had the opportunity to go to a tea house there. There were so many varieties of loose tea. Was surprised at the variety and taste of each one they gave the group to sample.Harvest Moon by Handhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18026575111937500816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-25670746205744609002012-08-11T22:45:33.431-05:002012-08-11T22:45:33.431-05:00It was great seeing all the photos of your family ...It was great seeing all the photos of your family and how great for you to get to see them after so long.<br /><br />As you know I have a very close knit family and can't imagine not seeing my brother for over 10 years......lol<br /><br />I bet Karma enjoyed all the pats and attention but she will be glad when everyone has left and she could get some peace......lolJo-Anne's Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11418152399382818709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-40960123228164800272012-08-11T11:27:22.507-05:002012-08-11T11:27:22.507-05:00Happy Birthday! :-)Happy Birthday! :-)Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08824473397605172813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-12130814572209260632012-08-10T21:22:38.826-05:002012-08-10T21:22:38.826-05:00Rita--

It's kind of like rebooting your computer. The nice people at the AT&T store told me that. I find my cell behaves better if I follow that rule. Now, pardon me please, because a tiny lizard is in my closet and I'd like to find it before it grows into a large dragon.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-65290761092661453402012-08-08T14:02:57.602-05:002012-08-08T14:02:57.602-05:00Oh, and, by the way, my phone does that too...

In the photo of your mom by herself in the chair, I thought you looked like her. I'm glad, by the way, to see you in that one photograph. Now I can picture you when I write a comment or read one of your comments on my blog.<br /><br />Ah, what a happy gathering. So wonderful to read. Thank you for sharing.
