Lemonade anybody?

I was done having tea all by myself so I made up some lemonade to share. Points of interest (for those that enjoy details and history)--The quilt belonged to my Great Grandma, the white table cloth was given to me by a friend (she bought it in Germany), the basket tray was made by my Mother, the flower picture was given to me by my sister-in-law. All these treasures cheer me while I'm waiting on Spring. Have a great day and if you are in the area stop by :)

Oh I do love that quilt. How exciting. Maybe my great-grandchildren will use the quilts I am making like you yourself are doing. What treasures - quilt by Great Grandma, handmade basket by your Mother and other treasures from friends and family. Love the whole idea of lemonade in spring...bette

Martha, that picture is so pretty, and the lemonade so yummy. Thanks for sharing. It was delicious. And yes, I'm one of those who love to hear all the details and history behind it all. Have a fun day. xoRachel

I will take a glass of lemonade. Sounds so refreshing. Spring is springing in our yard. The Bradford Pear Tree in the backyard is blooming and also the pussy willow bush. Today it is to get to 70 degrees and maybe beyond. The night was in the 30's, so a big jump for the daytime.

Tell the kids to watch for mail in a few days. :~)

How fun it would be to have a glass of lemonade and catch up in person! Alas, I guess we shall have to resort to the pictures and the blogging. Looks very inviting!
