Oui! Oui! I'm off to Paris to visit my "Tea amie"
Sometimes trading tea leads to more than swapping leaves. It was my good fortune to become acquainted with my friend Mathyld over a year ago during a Tea Swap that I hosted on this blog.
Awhile ago, I had written about Traveling from My Teacup...at the time never thinking that because of my teacup I would end up actually visiting France. I am not sure if I will get all the way to Provence to visit Miss Maple's Tea Room. Hopefully I do get the chance to roll around a field of French Lavender!
So, dear readers, you may not hear much from me in the next 2 weeks...but when I do return, I will have some wonderful pictures, some fun stories and a treasure trove of incredible memories.
Perhaps I'll catch up on some reading, stroll the gardens at Versailles and take in some art!
I definitely plan to throw some tea parties while I am there. I have been having wild imaginings of hosting a Floating Tea Party -- a party that moves in different ways around the world, bringing people together and serving Mad Pots of Tea! (of course)

....First stop: Paris, France
Au Revoir!

Promise us you'll go visit Mariage Freres in the Marais (a great neighbouhood in the centre of the city). It's both a tea salon AND a museum.
Hope you can find it.
Have other tips for the best tea salons if you like.
Bon voyage.
So exciting! Can't wait to hear all about your tea-ventures in Paris! Have an amazing time. Bon Voyage!!!
