How beautiful and nice. Thank you dear Hitty Lady, Love, nia
You have reminded me that friends and I used to wassail our fruit trees each year then have a meal together. Then during covid lockdowns we stopped (her 90 year old Dad lived with them and was shielding) and we never started again. Maybe next year I will suggest it.
I really do appreciate how you bring the natural world into your lives, honoring their part in our daily lives. Appreciation goes a long way, doesn’t it?
Awesome! We gave our trees large buckets of water because its been so dry but we never thought of tea and toast 🙂
That is pretty awesome a tradition!
I expect the tea was appreciated – before the rain arrived and no doubt the birds and squirrels will enjoy the toast. Blessings for the New year.
