Surprize! !

There are some advantages to living in an old house as you might be lucky enough to win a prize! Remember when Katie (Kitten's Homeschool) was hosting Fun Monday and she promised a little Christmas treat for whoever had the oldest house and whose pile of bricks stones has actually been around since Queen Victoria was on the throne!!

Yes it was mine! so when the postman called today with a parcel for me I had a sneaking suspicion it might be from Katie. I couldn't wait to open the package~ and what do I find....this sweet little jar of spiced tea with instructions.
The jar is so pretty (you can't see all the embossed fruit in my photos) and it has a screw top metal lid with a picture of a basket of fruit. When I opened the jar the blend of spices was very aromatic and I couldn't wait to try it. I quickly took a few pictures and then offered my mother a cup and made one for myself. I don't drink ordinary tea but I quite like fruit tea and I certainly liked this spiced tea, although is was a little on the sweet side.
My mother was immediately smitten, she wondered if we could buy it here, so I will be checking down the tea aisle when I next shop. In the mean time I've promised my mother she can help herself as long as she saves a few cups for me!
Katie as you can see your spiced tea has been very well received so thank you very much for the treat.
