Another Mad Tea Party!

Alice met her Aunty, Anachronistic Alice, who was sitting on a table with her friend the White Rabbit. He was worried as usual, as he was late for something important. Aunty Alice had to rush off with the rabbit, but before she went, she told Alice a story about going on a journey to a strange land, with talking animals, and Queens made from playing cards. Aunty Alice showed Alice her journal page, a picture of a Queen wearing a china dress. The writing said that she was just like the Queen in Alice in Wonderland, except that she smiled. Alice listened to her Aunt, wondering, as usual, what on earth she was on about. Ah well. It was always interesting to see her.

When her aunt had gone, Alice felt very tired, and instantly fell asleep.

When she awoke, she was in the strangest room with the strangest creatures....

She wondered if she was still dreaming.

There was a terribly mad person using a teacup for a chair. There was another white rabbit, standing on the table! ''How naughty!'' thought Alice.

There was a friendly, but slightly disturbing, cat in a tree, that wouldn't stop grinning and kept fading in and out of view.

The wooden man on the chair was wearing the funniest hat.

''Could I have a cup of tea please?'' Alice asked. But as she spoke, a little dormouse popped his head out of the giant teacup! He had been fast asleep in there!

What a day! Alice continued to dream and dream. She dreamt of many other parties, all starting here at one spectacular party hosted by Vanessa! ''Oh this is such fun'' Alice thought in her dream. I hope I can stay asleep long enough to visit all of these parties!

A Mad Tea-Party!

Alice remembered something strange that had happened to her one day... It all started with the white rabbit and a fall.......

There were keys and cups and teapots and watches involved, if she remembered correctly. And a strange tea party with a Mad Hatter and his animal friends...

If Alice had the choice, I think she would have liked a strawberry or two and a fondant fancy to accompany her tea. Please help yourself!

Today though, she is enjoying a tea party in the company of her new acquaintances. It all seems so familiar...It may be a little strange, but at least the sun is shining.

We could join Alice for a little while, have a tiny cup of tea and then meander over to see Miss Vanessa at A Fanciful Twist, who is organising this Mad Tea Party! I am going to rush off there now to see what surprises will unfold and to eat a delicious morsel or two!Before we go, look who has gatecrashed the party! Perhaps she will sing us a song and then we can be off...Please take some flowers with you, they smell so lovely! Before you go-have you seen this? I had no idea that this was being made so thank you Renee! It looks great.

I will leave the washing up for later!
