The Little Ladies have been busy, busy, busy this last month!
Anna Marie’s Teas has been enjoying different types of private teas this summer. Bridal Showers, Baby Showers, Book Clubs, Red Hatters, and the blossoming Little Ladies Tea Parties!
A Little Lady Tea Party is a bit different than many children birthday venues. A golden opportunity [...]
Drinking tea in the mountains was just one thing we loved doing….
even the Tea Lady got in on a little Colorado rafting!
We did not plan this – but our Zip Line guide said our ‘genie lamps’ could bring us good luck.
I am copying this recipe from a very faded recipe card from Brenda’s mother – Gunilda Emily Ida Froestchner. But I found a scribble from Brenda on the back of the recipe card. She discovered this same exact strawberry bread recipe in the cookbook “The Tea Table”. One of her favorite cookbooks – as it [...]
When I woke up today – I thought I had it all together. But, before 7 a.m. I realized I had already missed the boat on keeping my day on track with my May day schedule!
Does May get like that for you? I find it interesting how we plan and prepare months in advance for [...]
Blending Tea.
Have you ever tried this? Maybe even accidentally – when you are down to a small amount of one tea so you add in a different tea to make a full pot? The result can be surprisingly delicious!
You can’t ruin the tea. So, get over the intimidation and don’t ever let [...]
It’s all about the chocolate!!!
Last week, as I spent one morning preparing for the Simply Chocolate Valentine’s Tea Party I realized that I was falling once again totally in love with chocolate! Such a delightful food group!
A short history lesson about chocolate shows it to be part of human culture for at least 2000 [...]
Private Tea Events
January 09 has jumped off to a good start at our little operation! We enjoyed having and hosting three special tea events.
A Murder Mystery Dinner with a group that calls themselves the “Mystery Dinner Junkies” – what fun and what a hoot for us to listen in the kitchen!!
The following week we hosted [...]
Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate! Paired with a soothing cup of tea – what could be better?
Our Valentine’s theme this year certainly says what we think is important on this love-filled holiday! February 14 at 10:30 we will host one of my favorite tea parties of the year. Winter is so blah – how can [...]
This summer Sarah, Selena and I have been practicing tea tasting. We sampled black, green, and dessert teas. I am very excited to begin offering this service to our customers. It is surprising how much there is to learn about tea!
The tea plant is an evergreen shrub named “Camellia Sinensis”. At our tea tasting [...]
I’m hot this morning! I’ve already brewed my own breakfast blend – Pouchong and Irene’s Blend. Today, I have added ice and I am headed to work in the gardens. Almost any of our loose leaf teas make a wonderful ice tea – a couple of very unique and good ones to try are Apricot, [...]
