Who can forget their first tea party? Playing
dress-up and treating your teddy bear and
favorite doll to a lavish repast. A time where
the tea was perfect and the snacks were sweet,
days were endless, and dreams reflected all
things possible.
All grown up, and remembering those sweet
memories tugs at our heartstrings and wishes
for the simplest of pleasures.

The perfect tea party always started
with your imagination.

Now, let's have Tea!
Snowball Tea Cookies are so
delicious!
Baby Crissy was a very special present
from one of my aunt, Gladys. I was 4 years old
when I received her; that day I played all day
long, and when bedtime came I did not want
to go to sleep. I still remember as if it were
yesteday.
