30 Water Arobic Ladies

From May 1st there about 30 ladies that meet on M-W-F for water arobics. To finish our season this year we had a delightful tea party that everyone took part in. This is how we look when we aren't in swim suits. Sally is hiding under her white hat. The pool officially closes Nov 1st, then we start chair exercises. We seniors need to keep fit.





Cucumber Sandwiches on white bread, garnished with black sesame seeds, cream cheese and goat cheese piped on top with a radish curl. Parsley to top it off. Delicious.





Sweet Kitty alway greeting with a smile.








English Trifle was a hit and there wasn't any left.

Interview for The Signal Newspaper

While having tea at The Tea Gardens in Newhall on October 1st, I was being interviewed by a local newspaper for a feature article about Tea Graces, and my book The Graceful Art of Tea. The article turned out to be a five column spread. The writer Alex did a great job of complimenting my tea business that I so love. It's all about serving others.
