Grandma's dishes, various tea pots, my Oma's tea cozies,

The cookies are the ones I made this past week.
Koek and wonderful chocolate cake!
Cake was a lovely addition!!!
We gathered together, all 8 of us,
with our local Matushka and talked about
what it means to be an Orthodox woman, married,
working Mothers with
children, how things have changed, raising children,
homemaking traditions.

It was so lovely and I do hope we can have another
in the new year...
building community is so important and needed in our lives.
And to come together as Christians,
and of course to have tea....

Looks like a wonderful evening!
Yes, it's good to get together and support each other.
I feel filled with peace and joy when I see these photos. I am happy that you are finding community and support there.
That would be a nourishing tradition indeed, if you can do it in the future. Your tea cozies are so charming...well, *everything* is charming!!
Sounds absolutely wonderful and I wish I had been able to be there!!
I love your tea parties. Everything is so charming and cozy!
