Ladies Who Lunch and Top Hat Special-Teas...

Is there anything better than a lunch with special friends?  When my friends and I get together there is always so much fun!  We laugh more than we lunch, and it is truly a time of rejuvenation on so many levels.    Although, I am "new" here, I have been blessed by so many new friends who have welcomed me with open arms and have kept me from feeling that loneliness that can often accompany a relocation.  It is so wonderful to meet all the wonderful new souls that God is bringing into my life.

 Last week I had lunch with 4 friends at a
new-to-me place here in town
We met at Top Hat Special -Teas and had a great lunch. 

Top Hat is tucked away on a little street,right in down town,
but you could spot it easily with the cute pink exterior paint and flags flying (I love flags!).
It isn't a big, but had ample seating and made for a comfortable and cozy visit.
 So many lovely things to look at, which added to the ambience.
 I loved the extensive collection of Royal Albert's Old Country Roses and that it was actually used!  That is my sweet Mother-in-Law's pattern, so I especially love it because it reminds me of her (I think when she comes for a visit we will have to go back to Top Hat just so she can see it all). 
 Isn't this a fun way to dress up the base of a potted plant and make use of those chipped and broken china pieces?
I had a wonderful lunch and know I will be back soon, because there were a few (only a few) of the world's problems that my friends and I didn't manage to solve during our time....ah, next time!
