Spoiled?



Tea Time!
Though we have our cherished and pretty niceties,
many did what they had to do to have a fine cup of tea.

As I sip my Morning Coffee with Half & Half in it to tone it down a bit...I'm blessed that I can have coffee or tea in  pretty and dainty tea cups with saucer sets to enjoy. 

"Spoiled" and LOVIN' it on the Prairie,
~Deanna~ 




Visited www.marthasfavorites.com 
this morning for a fine cup of tea!  She's having a PARTY.
Won't you join her?






Still thirsty so I went over to Sandi's

Had a lovely time!!!

Awesome picture! I would say that we are horribly spoiled, but I would rather fix coffee with Mr. Coffee than put a tin pot on a wood stove (getting firewood on these bitter cold prairie mornings would not be a lot of fun).

Hi Deanna,
Your post made me smile! When I look at that photo I realise just how far we have come and how blessed we are. But I'm sure they felt just as blessed to sit and warm their hands on a hot cup of tea or coffee on a cold day! May we all be thankful for our blessings! Thank you for coming by for tea with me.

Blessings,
Sandi

Making tea certainly was more of an ordeal for our ancestors. I'm glad I didn't have to chop wood to get my stove going for my kettle today.

Great picture, but oh my! I am thankful for my life today! I'm looking forward to planting my red bud seeds from your yard one day soon. Although it was only 16 degrees here this morning!

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
