When life hands you a bowl of cherries!!
Make yourself a cherry tart.
Once again I apologise to you my lovely friends for neglecting my blog duties. My cousin and I had a marvellous time and I must say, I am sorry our time together is coming to an end. She is now packed and ready to leave for home early Monday morning. Tomorrow afternoon, we are invited to take tea with my Aunt Millie at Foxglove. I am drooling at the thought of eating one of her delicious scones with homemade cream!! Other than that we have planned a quiet weekend. What are your plans for this weekend?
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and remember...♥ Life is too short, so live well, laugh often and love much ♥

Bonjour Duchess,
So glad to hear you had a wonderful time visiting with your cousin. Enjoy your tea together - I could really go for one of those scones slathered with lots of cream!
Bon weekend my friend!
That cherry tart looks fabulous. I like bing cherries, but last year I discovered Rainier cherries and couldn't get over how delicious they are.
I'm so glad you had such a good time with your cousin. Enjoy your afternoon tea tomorrow and have a great weekend.
Yummy!! I must agree with you about the cherry tart! It looks absolutely delicious!! I love anything with cherries, honestly. I really hope that your afternoon tea with your aunt is lovely!! I will be visiting with an old friend this weekend. I'm quite excited about it! Happy weekend, Duchess!!
Greetings to you Duchess. So glad you & your cousin have had some lovely times. Never worry about your followers, as family comes first. Your true friends will always be here. I've been lapsing myself, just couldn't get inspired. Have a lovely tea with your dear Auntie. I adore her name alone, but that scone w/homemade cream sounds divine. Wishing you much happiness my dear xx deb
That scone and cream looks so delicious. Very happy to see you back as I have missed you.

I AM DELIGHTED TO HEAR YOU ARE ENJOYING YOURSELF WITH YOUR COUSIN. HAVE A NICE CUP OF TEA AT YOUR AUNT MILLIE'S TOMORROW, AND ENJOY THE REST OF THE WEEKEND.

Dear Friend, So glad you dropped by. I understand how life can so easily get way busy. I find it easier and easier to have too much to do.
I think it will just be something I will always have to work at.
But never to busy to visit and hear how life is going with you.
God Bless,

Cherry Tart..oh my now you got my attention! I was trying to cut back on my sweets ...but you are so right...life is too short! So bring on the sweets my friend. So happy your time with you cousin was soooooo enjoyable. xoxo
Enjoy your tea party with your aunt and cousin. Sounds like you'll be having a lovely time!
I have just finished working today (Saturday - not good). Just got home at nearly 6pm and sitting down with coffee and chocolate. How naughty!!! But I'm tired and in need of a little self-comfort!! Going to try and relax now ......
Enjoy your weekend!
Cherry tart looks delicious, glad you had a fab time with your cousin. Enjoy your tea Duchess.
I am going to a barbecue this weekend. Wish I was having cherry tart and scones too...
I shall be digging for Victory and pruning and sweeping and snipping! One must keep the estate looking tip-top just in a case a Duchess comes for tea!

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY DUCHESS,
THAT BOWL OF CHERRIES IS THE PRETTIEST BOWL OF CHERRIES I HAVE EVER SEEN.
I LOVE BING CHERRIES AND A CHERRY TART ON THIS SNOWY DAY WOULD BE DELICIOUS.
I AM SO DELIGHTED YOU HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SPEND TIME WITH YOUR COUSIN...HOW SPECIAL. I KNOW YOU WERE THE PERFECT HOSTESS.
WITH ALL THOSE BEAUTIFUL CHERRIES IN THAT PINK BOWL THE GROCERY STORES WILL WONDER WHY SO MANY WOMEN ARE BUYING OR ASKING ABOUT CHERRIES.
GIVE YOUR COUSIN A HUG AND ENJOY TEA AND SCONES AT YOUR AUNTS HOUSE.
XOXO DARLING

Dear Lady Duchess, what lovely scones and seeing your Aunt Millie with her silver tea set reminds me of a scene from An Affair To Remember... when Deborah Kerr walked in in perfect posture, carrying the tea tray at Cary Gran'ts aunt's house....
Thank you for your lovely gift, your blog.
I would love to share tea with you, and will visit often and perhaps invite my friends to join you in the afternoon, to enjoy your lovelies and drink tea and relax with your music!
Thanks! ~M
Sounds like you had a great visit! The tarts look yummy. Thanks for posting in my blog...Peggy
