OH Vanessa, What an utterly gorgeous Mad Tea Party. Thank you so much for inviting me again, I adored every single moment of your party, though the Cheshire Cat did seem to be staring at me a little. We are a little behind over at Lilly Cottage, we have put the kettle on and are getting out the pretty tea cups as we speak/write/type but you are welcome to visit us whilst we get ready.
