I’m re-blogging this post from the vault in anticipation of some unique tea journeys I plan to indulge in next month resulting in a Part Two – Vancouver has several new tea spots to explore and I want to visit one each week, some are a city walk away and others will be reached by transit!

Hola Kim, you made a cup of tea so sensuel and
inviting. I felt like I was there with you with every sip. Surprise to see my name and The Four Seasons here. This coming Saturday is another Four Seasons dinner at my place. We are at our 30th year, never missing a season. 🥳
Must have you again at my table soon for a tête à tête and tea. Love your words.♥️😍

Thanks for re-blogging this Kimberlee. You had me at tea. I’m am a tea drinker and for you to post something like this was very nice. I love that no matter where you go and describe what you see around you, you add that flair of enjoying your time with loved ones. It just makes it all the more relatable.
