Ruby Tuesday


Sometimes, the most wonderful treat is a cup of tea.  Nothing fancy - a tea bag in a white china mug will do.  This was one of the most welcome cuppa's I've ever had.  Funny how a photo can take you back to the mood and feeling of a time. Last summer,  I was tired and footsore from walking, walking, walking the streets of Dublin.  Near St Stephen's Green, there was a cafe with two tables on the pavement...


For more Ruby Tuesday experiences, join Mary T here.  Better yet, find a photo with red in it and join in.

  5. I love the Dorothy header! But that is the actual teabag that you snapped in Dublin? I wonder if you could order the same teabags? Of course even if you did, it would never taste as good as on that one day...

  6. Barry's is a nice tea indeed. But, I am partial to Lyons myself.

  7. Rudee - that was just a much needed break in the afternoon. There was so much more to come.

    Ginny - That photo was taken at the cafe while I waited for the tea to steep. I don't think it would have mattered what brand the tea was at that point.

    hip chick - I never really developed any favorite while in Ireland. This was the only time, though, that the tea was not served in a proper pot.

  10. I have never heard of that brand of tea? I am a Red Rose girl in Canada, Tetleys is also good.

    You're always assured of a mug of tea in our house!
