Tea room 22- A Farmhouse kitchen, anyone for a cuppa?

Welcome to the 22nd incarnation of the tea room. This time we are watching for spring from a cosy farmhouse kitchen. There is an aga for baking virtual cakes and an inglenook with toasty fire and settles to rest weary bones on. The distressed chintz sofa and footstool have arrived safe and sound and the priest hole is around here somewhere. On the Window sill is an aspidistra its pot surrounded by a hand holding circle of nearly naked mohawk babies, they have placards and a brazier.

Outside in the surrounding fields can be found the tea room horses, Earl and Lady Grey, also a herd of bison AND a Ha Ha to keep the bishops from invading.

Usual rules apply, no fisticuffs, if you want an argument go else where. Mellors the butler / game keeper will supply all sorts of things on request. Welcome Mums of one, none or many to the tea room of requirement.

I wear my paint (and glue or glitter or dirt or whatever) with pride. 'Tis a sign that BabyScout had fun with an experience. Grin I could never be a Parisian.

I thought those uber-competititve mothers were an MN/AIBU thing until I encountered one today. Eurgh!

Wine at Amber's news
[hopeful] at potential [teacup]

I'm now a regular user of skype and find that the right emoticon speaks volumes!

I can't think why any one could contemplate doing 'that' to that specific part of their anatomy. Getting pierced ears hurt enough Shock

Mistlechick's at the same school. Roll on 18mo when he'll be going up to the junior school - I think that they start to let them become individuals there rather than trying to beat them into conformity.

Currently undergoing the [headbang] that is being told your child is on too easy a reading level so should read more of the books so that he gets through them more quickly so that he can get onto a more appropriate level. Can anyone else spot the flaw? Angry

Just wanted to pop in and say I dreamed about Wine last night... I think I must be more than slightly odd.

:o at Amber being chased through the House of Lords by a bunch of bewigged Lords :o. Or maybe the mental picture I have is funnier than the real thing. :o

I am ignoring all of you. Aspidistras shrivel and die a horrible death in the Rockies.

MaryBS · 12/02/2011 22:13

What, even in the priest's hole of requirement?

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/02/2011 22:19

Nothing ever dies in the Tea Room of Requirement. Wherever it is. That is why we all look so youthful and dewy-fresh.

Jacksmania · 12/02/2011 22:26

Yes, Mary, even there.

Sad, isn't it. :o

MaryBS · 14/02/2011 08:31

Am not sure if I can believe in a tearoom of requirement if things die in there :(

:o

Nothing dies in the tea room, Mary. Perhaps the working title of the tea room movie should be Aspidistra: Resurrection?

Peeks head round door

Spots kettle

settles down for a Brew or two before setting off on long trip to find the next location
