Bring Your Tardis To Work Day

We can't play every day. Sometimes we actually have to work. So I decided to take the Tardis to work today. I think he needs a booster seat.

This is better. He will be able to see the customers when they come in for a loan.

 

Our branch decided to do a coworker Thanksgiving today. We had quite the feast.

 

Tardis enjoyed the feed. Everyone made him feel welcome.

The menu was extensive with turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, squash, corn, peas and onions, cranberry sauce, apple cider, and apple pie with vanilla ice cream.

Tardis helped himself to a big plate of food. He was one stuffed Tardis when it was over.  While I went back to work, Tardis took a nap.  He needs to rest up for his next adventure.

Tea at Pauline's

Oh do come in, we've been waiting for you.

 

Kismet the kitten, greeted us at Pauline's lovely home. The living room was cozy and inviting and a perfect respite from the raw, rainy weather outside.

 

 

We dined on shrimp sandwiches.

 

And mushroom sandwiches and curried chicken sandwiches.

Pauline made cream scones and crescent rolls. We had strawberry jam, lemon curd

 and pumpkin butter.

I had to try them all. Everything was delicious!

We had a few tea options. Lady Grey, Boston Harbor and Cranberry Autumn.

Deborah, Kim, and Pauline enjoyed the company of the Tardis. I told them all about the Traveling Teapot and it's adventures.

Kim is my friend from high school and I met Pauline and Deborah years ago in a tea group. In 1997, I joined the Greater Boston Friends of Victoria tea group. The group was active with tea events for about 10 years and then the group dismantled. I have remained friends with several of the ladies and we get together occasionally.

Pauline brought out the desserts.

She set them right in front of me. A little bit of decadence on her amethyst glass cake stand.
We had mini red velvet cakes, lemon squares, chocolate ganache cheesecakes, iced brownies and pretzel bars. I took a doggie bag to my sister who could not attend today's tea.

I had to take a last photo of Kismet who is helping Pauline and her husband Scott heal their hearts from the loss of their cat Whisper. Kismet has found herself a safe and loving home.

The adventure continues with the Tardis and I hope I will have something to blog about this weekend.
