Sarah, What a wonderful way to start the day, with a trip down the rabbit hole! What a fantastic and fanciful hat!! I love all your colorful tidbits and vignettes…from Olivia to your frogs and beautiful MKC Taylor ceramics. Such a wonderful display of color and flowers. I’ll take a chocolate with me. I don’t have a favorite brand but love any dark chocolate, especially dark with sea salt. ♥
ReplyDeleteGorgeous collection, Sarah! Quite fanciful, yes! Love all the critters which have come out to play in your tribute tea party!
ReplyDeleteDearest Sarah,
ReplyDeleteYour title made me look puzzled as you write "FancifAul". Faul in German means lazy... A mix of languages? But the A is in capital letter.
So I guess I did slide down the rabbit hole.
What lovely displays of a very unique Tea in the garden with such lovely flowers.
Yes, my preference is dark chocolate for its taste, inherited that from my Dad and also due to it having less sugar.
Hugs,
Mariette
Mariette, such are the mysteries of falling down a rabbit hole. 😂😂😂😂 My computer keyboard is playing games of late, so thank you for alerting me. All corrected now. Have a beautiful day, and as always, thank you for stopping by to visit.
DeleteYou're quite welcome Sarah! Title is correct but the URL will be forever the original... 🤗
DeleteSarah, I agree with Mary what a delightful way to start the day as I enjoy my coffee. Your vignettes are wonderful and your photos bring them to life. I would love to be present at your fabulous tea party. I have never met a chocolate that I didn’t like! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful fanciful tea party. I came over from Vanessa's blog, and am glad I did.
ReplyDeleteAs to your question: I don't really have a favourite chocolate. I have issues with dairy, so can't have most kinds, and though there are some vegan chocolates I enjoy, none really stands out as being an actual favourite. Though being a pretty tasty one that actually has a low pricetag, the bars from the "Moo Free" range tend to be the ones I buy most often. Luckily for me, virtual food is always allergy-free, which leaves me free to enjoy the delightful treats you're offering.

So charming with all your adorable treasures Sarah♥
ReplyDeleteSarah, I have never met a chocolate I didn't like! Oh, I can't tell you how much your post is making me smile today....of course I love the M-C pretties, but also your collection of animal-themed pieces is what's making me giggle with delight. The tulips are beautiful, too! :D I also appreciate the Alice links, too. Stunningly gorgeous party!
ReplyDeletexo,
RJ
You always set a fun, whimsical and fanciful tea party, Sarah! All your creatures and pretty MC dishes with yummy treats makes me want to be there.
ReplyDeleteSo very sweet and whimsical Sarah. Love the rabbit bonnet and the frogs. Your MK china is so pretty and is quite fitting. Thanks for taking me down the rabbit hole.
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming tea party! I adore your dessert server with the black bird on top. I'm not too picky when it comes to chocolate. I guess my favorite would be dark chocolate!
ReplyDeleteWhite chocolate is always my favorite (which really isn't chocolate at all!).
ReplyDeleteSarah, HELLO HELLO!
ReplyDeleteA voice from the past😊
Thank you for the lovely party and all the eye candy!

ReplyDeleteOh Sarah, such fun and so much eye candy! I love all your MKC frogs and the owl with it's fanciful hat! Tulips, tea cups and treats make for a magical afternoon! I like chocolates with caramel~
ReplyDeleteJenna
No Mad Tea Party is complete without a Fabulous Fanciful Hat like that! And so much forbidden Sugary things and Visual Delights! It's been Enchanting to spend a Rainy Day visiting all these mad Tea Parties being Hosted!
ReplyDeleteYour tea party is fanciful indeed! Lovely tulips and ceramics and so many delightful treats. I'll follow you down the rabbit hole to this tea party any day! You know I am smiling while reading this..........
