We have the best staff in the world....thanks everyone for all of your hard work.

Keep a clear eye toward life's end.
Do not forget your purpose and
destiny as God's creature. What

heart enriched by honest service,
love, sacrifice and courage.
- Francis of Assisi

Saying Goodbye One Day At A Time

Christmas Party at Walnut Creek Chapel

Walnut Creek Chapel

PC Child Nutrition Event

December 2, 2010

Its early morning on December 3rd. I was at the tearoom until 8:30pm last night. We had a Christmas party for the PC Child Nutrition Team at Walnut Creek. I literally stood at the register all day trying to help Miss Jamie with the line. So many of you have been so kind to offer hugs and support during this time of our transition. It always does my heart good when the tearoom is full and overflowing. It must have something to do with being a Preacher's Kid...you know my dad use to say the same thing about a full sanctuary. I can remember after church on the way home he would always go through in his mind the folks he didn't see there and would comment about missing them. I have found myself doing the same thing as I am saying goodbye to each one of my wonderful customers.

I got two more emails yesterday that I wanted to share that made my day.

"I am really sorry to see that you are closing, my two highschool friends & I meet there once in a while to have lunch. In fact we were in there jst today. We had the Chicken, Artichoke Casserole and it was super delicious. Can I get the recipe? If you ever decide to open another Tea Room, I'll be back. " - Loyce Ann Peard

"I plan on bringing my granddaughters one more time before you close. We have enjoyed your tea room for our tea parties for 10 years. The girls always dress up and wear my vintage hats. It has been a wonderful family tradition. I have gone to other tea rooms but none can compare to yours "- Pam Oliver

Saying Goodbye For Now

These postcards went out last week to over 4000 of our customers.

Today I got an email from a lady living in Kansas.

"So very sorry to hear the tea room is closing--I live in Kansas City and we have nothing like A Spot For Tea here so it has been a pleasure to visit each time I am in Oklahoma City to see my aunt. We are both hoping you will reconsider and reopen at a later date. We will miss our wonderful times there--Good luck in your future plans--Terry Clapper & Alice McCann

Yesterday, I got many phone calls and one in particular from for Honorable Mayor Tardibono who spoke so many kind and encouraging words to me about how much A Spot For Tea has blessed the city and brought alot of joy to other people's lives.

From now until the end of December I am going to be blogging each day about the journey and how grateful I am for all the years since 1996 and the many wonderful friends I have made because of our shared love of tea. Thank you for making these years successful and for all your kind words of appreciation for A Spot For Tea.

Valentine's Week at A Spot For Tea has been sweet and musical.

Yesterday in the Red Room our Dinner Club that meets monthly

had some visitors from Edmond that performed.

They are from the Imperial Academy in Edmond.
They danced....they sang....they were adorable!

Today we had the OK Chorale Barbershop Quartet singers

That is a real treat for our customers.

January Winter's Thoughts

(click on picture to make larger so you can read!)

Its January at the tearoom:
I've been working on new menu's for the tearoom. I've added a new item which is Tres Treat Salad (3 scoops of our favorite salads, chicken salad, tuna salad and pasta salad on greens. Served with our homemade house dressing.

It was time for the menu to be in color and so we changed it. We have also added Scones to our dessert menu for everyday.

It's January, which means I've also been working on the newsletter and trying to get it out. It still has not come back from the printer but I am hopeful that they will be in your mailboxes by next week.

We will have all the details about our upcoming special event: Valentine's Dinner which we will having again this year on Friday, February 12th.

I have been so busy working in the office that I haven't had much time to blog about all that has been going on. I don't know if anyone else felt this way but after seeing pictures of Haiti and the earthquake victims and hearing their stories everything seemed trivial to write about. Seeing and hearing those people sing in their midnight hour was just amazing and humbling.

Psalm 63:7 "Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings."
