Tea Time In Birmingham, Alabama!
What a special treat it was to be able to attend the Tea Time Magazine Retreat in Birmingham, Alabama. My dear friend, Tamara and I flew into Birmingham for three full days of fun. Lorna Reeves, editor of Tea Time Magazine, had a packed schedule for us. The moment we arrived at our beautiful hotel in downtown Birmingham, we never stopped until we got back on the plane to head back to our homes. The Elyton Hotel is a quaint boutique hotel with a great restaurant. It used to be a bank many years ago. I loved the elevator that…
Christmas In Beverly’s Tea Room
I love decorating my Tea Room for Christmas. Since I decorate in pink/black at this time, it’s so much fun using pink Christmas decor that I haven’t been able to really use in other rooms of the house as it would clash too much. Fortunately, I had plenty of pink items. I will share the tree from the past two years that was a teal color. It was fun to use and then this past year I used a smaller pink tree. I found the tree was too small. I think the box was wrong as it said it was…
Do You Enjoy Reading The Bible?
I wanted to share with you about my reading of the Bible that I have been doing this past year. You know how each January everyone shares Bible reading schedules in order to read the entire Bible in a year? Well, I have struggled with the many reading plans and trying to keep up and then beating myself up when I’m not successful. I love reading God’s Word and studying what God wants me to know about Him and how to live a victorious life. I’ve always had a certain reading pattern that I feel comfortable with, but this past…
Are You Good Enough?
When I was in the 6th grade, I have a memory that has always stayed with me all these years. Our class was lining up on the sidewalk to walk to the cafeteria for lunch. There was this certain boy that picked on me constantly. I still remember his name and I can remember his face. I don’t remember seeing him in high school and I’ve always wondered what ever happened to him. Anyway, back to my story…..as we were standing in line, I was directly behind him and he was one of those kids that was all over the…
Let’s Go Shopping!
Shopping has always been a favorite for me. Even as a little girl I would scan the Sear’s catalog and mark the clothes I wanted to begin 1st grade. I can still envision a dress I saw when my mom went out with some friends shopping one time. It was the cutest black and white polka dot dress with a red bow. It would have been perfect for my second grade picture. Money was extremely tight when I was young for many years, so shopping and actually buying was very rare. That didn’t stop me though, I have always loved…
