Tea for two

October 2, 2009
Pearl loves to have tea parties. The only problem with them is the preparation that must be taken beforehand to avoid massive flooding. We strip down to our diapers, ok so just Pearl does that, pull out at least two bath towels (regular old kitchen towels don't cut it with this kid), mover her table to a spot clear of any valuables, find every single tea cup and tea pot we can, and then refill them about 10-zillion times. She loves it and I figure what's a few sopping wet bath towels to dry when you can spend an hour pretending to drink the water (which inevitably has floaties in it from little fingers dipping into the cups) she pours you over and over again? Not to mention her cute faces as she explains the intricacies of drinking tea properly.
