As my friend and I take a seat at the bistro,Where Roses Bloom, we relax and look around the garden where flowers still share the last of summer's bounty and my Fall flowers are just beginning.
While our tea is brewing, let's enjoy the view of nature's beauty.
And of course we can't forget the Autumn cottage for our birdie friends.
Our tea is ready and it is so nice to relax this afternoon in the fresh air and cooler temps. Today I will serve our tea from a teapot I have shared before. It is pretty for Fall with the leaf pattern on the front. Our french inspired tea mugs are designed with roses in Autumn colors and rose names on the inside brim.
Our sugar and creamer are Autumn inspired with a sunflower design on one side and rooster on the other.
For the centerpiece, I have added just a simple Happy Harvest carved pumpkin.
Rust colored napkins are held using a mini grapevine wreath and silk leaf for a napkin holder.
For our tea time dessert, we are enjoying pumpkin cakeroll with creamcheese filling. It is light and not too sweet. Perfect with a dollop of plum jam.
How cozy it is to settle in for the afternoon and enjoy tea and cakeroll in our bistro seats with comfy back cushions.
Thank you for joining me and my best friend for tea today. It is always wonderful to have you visit and your comments are welcomed and enjoyed.
Have a beautiful Autumn day.

Celestina, your post represent peace, kindness and understanding. You display such a sense of peace in your surroundings.
And oh my what I wouldn't give for a piece of that pumpkin cake!! Yummy!
Dearest Celestina Marie,
That was really a lovely idea and yes, it feels great to be outdoors now for tea. We have not been able to do this all summer; way too hot.
We've been on the balcony a few times now and it is great.
Your settings are very pleasing to the eye and balm for the soul.
Love to you,
Mariette
Celestina, If I lived closer to you I would invite myself over for tea, smile. Your setting is simply divine, the colors so appropriate and that cake roll looks so yummy. Fall is beautiful, the colors it brings make everything look so romantic and peaceful. Thank you for visiting, my friend, I always enjoy your visits. Hugs...Lu

Oh Celeste, I so wish I could join you for tea! I love the Autumn colors, it is one of my favorite times to take in the beauty of Nature. Your pumpkin roll look yummy! I made one, once, and it fell as flat as a pancake! (but it tasted good)
Have a wonderful week, my friend.
Hello Celestina,
You have set a cozy tea for your friend. The pumpkin roll looks wonderful with a dollop of plum jam on it. Very tasty and a delight with tea, I'm sure. Thank you, dear friend, for sharing with Tea Time today as well as your sweet comment on my post. Wishing you a lovely week.

Very pretty photography!...and the pumpkin roll looks great...it reminds me of my attempt at one last year...unfortunately it stuck to the pan and came out in pieces!..so it ended up being a pumpkin trifle (and nobody knew!)
Pumpkin cakeroll with cream cheese filling and a dollop of plum jam......... I'd love to be there for real.
Wonderful autumn tea. Having a friend for tea is a great way to celebrate. Love the teapot and the pumpkin roll is making my mouth water! Happy tea day!

Hello Celestina,
I enjoyed your nature pictures today, especially the flowers in the colors of Fall. The Happy Harvest pumpkin was so cute, and that pumpkin cakeroll looks scrumptious. I loved the friendship quote..it reminds me of my best friend who I've known for 35 years. Your post today was wonderful. Have a lovely Fall weekend.
