Falling Leaves Autumn Tea by Lorie Davison

Falling Leaves, Autumn Tea is a potpourri of olde country autumn themes influenced a bit by memories of cuddling up on the sofa with the winds rattling the front door, a pot of tea steeping close by, and a Jane Austen novel in my lap.
Here are the necessary pieces to help an artist feel comfortable in a thatched cottage in a faraway country parish. You will undoubtedly want to share a pot of tea with Heather and Colin Heathflowers, two very gracious and genteel sheep. Heather is always happy to tell guests that autumn is the time of year when the mind (like the leaves on the trees) sheds the vibrant green glow of youth and growth and turns inward to reflect on the warm golden tones of fruition. The perfect time, she suggests, for a classic Oolong tea who’s complex fragrance and stimulating properties harmonize perfectly with the introspective moods of Autumn. Their frequent guests Lizzy, Darcy, and young Clover always nod as they listen, pretending the concept has never occurred to them before.
Fallling Leaves, Autumn Tea is a little piece of a world that my sister and I loved to pretend we lived in. It's a place in my mind I still love to visit. If you think you might too - here are the appropriate country properties, frames, furniture, tea settings, and (of course) crumpets, a genteel artist like yourself will need.
