Welcome to Tea Time 2025. These posts will be about Tea Rooms we’ve been to, Teas we’ve given for friends and family, Church Tea events, and High Tea in restaurants from 2008 to the present. Tea in the U.S.A., Tea in England and Tea in Canada. Many of the Tea Rooms are no longer in business, which is sad.
This post was from October 17th of 2009. That was sixteen years ago!
Southern California is having a weather event and we are HOT HOT HOT. Back in April of 2009 my family planned a nice afternoon at the Rose Tree Cottage in Pasadena for my mother’s 85th birthday. It was a disappointing day for my mom because she fell on an uneven sidewalk when she arrived and had to spend the afternoon and evening at the hospital instead of having tea.

My mother giving us some words of wisdom at her birthday tea in 2007.
We decided it was high time to get together for tea again and thought we’d have some nice Fall weather for our get together. Well it’s Fall but we are having some summer weather. This time my mom, all my sisters, a SIL, nieces, and little grand niece are gathering in Fullerton. We’re praying for an accident free day!

Half the ladies in my family met for tea yesterday in Fullerton, California. We had the Senior member of our family, our 85 year old mom and the youngest member of our family, our 1 month old Grand Niece/Great Granddaughter in attendance.

The venue was the Spring Tea Garden in Fullerton, California. We were treated well during our time there.




Avery was born September 17th

This venue is still open for events.
That was 16 years ago which means this Fall our Grandniece Avery will be turning 16!
I love the collage made up of each face! What fun you’ve had at various tea rooms!
…there is always time for tea!
What a lovely family time.
I would welcome the opportunity to wear a hat like these, but then on the rare occasion when that opportunity arises, I am always in a quandary as to which kind of hat looks good on me!
Amazing how time flies! Great photos!
Love tea time with the family! Have a happy weekend.
I’d forgotten about this place for tea — your featuring Fullerton certainly had gotten my attention! Good memories of your time with your beloved mother.
Like the red teapot. Amazing how fast time goes by!!!
What a fun walk down memory lane, tea cups, hats and sandwiches.
My favorite in Camarillo was All Things Tea, but it’s not open now.
I am enjoying your brew-tiful moments!
What a lovely tea. I enjoyed all the photos.
