we're gradually having more daylight,
but it's still quite silvery at 8 a.m.
it makes it hard to get out of bed
but get of bed I must!
I'm having delicious and fragrant red clover tea
and a "Scotch Oatcake" to go with it
it is a recipe from my husband's family and is to die for
shouldn't that expression be: to live for (?)
that would convey the fact that it's a good reason to get out of bed in the morning
...... the prospect of an oatcake ......
:)

Oh I will have to live to try those oat cakes, they do look yummy! I know what you mean, we have been silvery for awhile too! Though I can't complain today it is supposed to be in the 70's. Have a great day, love the new section on What is Tea on Tuesday. Happy day, Christen
ReplyDeleteI just had a big bowl of oatmeal for dinner, with dried cranberries and walnuts. Yum! I will definitely be trying these oatcakes. When we get up for school at 6:00 am, it is pitch black outside, but by about 6:40 am, the sun is shining bright. Hope you are having a great day. Tammy
ReplyDeleteTea anytime at your house looks special...precious goodies from the talented and sweet Steph!
ReplyDeleteHappy T to ya!

Beautiful, lucky you! Enjoy your day :)
ReplyDeleteI am trying to make tea on Tuesday here in my office today. I have a new electric tea pot I am using for the very first time. I didn't think it was working but all of a sudden I heard something and went to check. The water is starting to heat up! Oh good. Soon I will have tea: apple cinimon. My favorite by Celestial Seaons. Your oatmeal cake looks nummy.
ReplyDeletesweet Kimmie, have I ever mentioned to you that I love your photography (and also your art of course)....you have an eye for it...and I look forward to your posts ecah time....when I saw this post today and especially when I scrolled down the page, for a second I did asked "Is that envelope from me? the stamps are so pretty..
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it dear friend... :))
There's nothing like seeing a well worn, well loved recipe card AND the results too! Thank you, Kimmie, for sharing your special breakfast recipe. Happy Tuesday! Hugs, Terri xoxo
ReplyDeleteRed clover has gotten my attention, but scotch oatcakes!! They look and sound divine! If it snows like they say...6 inches, I will make them tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful gifts from Steph, and I love the silvery look of the photos....just beautiful!
Lovely gifites... and the oatcake sounds yummy! I might have to try it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous and thoughtful gift. I,m sure you will put the little charms to good use. I love these old hand written recipes, worn and stained and i am sure they are much better for us than any "commercially " made biscuit, enjoy it with your tea today.xx
ReplyDeleteOh, you have such kind friends -- and that's a beautiful collage.
ReplyDeleteIt looks similar to an oatmeal scone recipe I have (YuUMMY too!) I love your stained and worn recipe card!!! A sign of a very good recipe!
ReplyDeleteLovely art mail too. That "trust" box is beautiful.
licking my lips over the oat cake. may try this. lovely gift from your talented friend to cheer they day.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this post on my sidebar this morning, I thought "OH NO, another person whose power is out!" Thankfully, that was not the case.
ReplyDeleteI love the new Tea Tuesday header. If you don't mind, I'm going to copy your Tea Tuesday picture and link it to your TT page.
Isn't Steph the sweetest? Her gift to me came while I was at the Post Office. Not quite as warm as the library, but a necessity. Thanks for your sweet comments about my plight. I appreciate them. And have a great Tea today, even though it's now Wednesday.
