December 3

“And how are you doing today, Mrs. Dorr?” Molly stopped by one of the tables in the tea room to smile down at one of her regulars. Mrs. Lucille Dorr usually came in on Fridays, to drink a cup of tea and read while her husband Stephen met with his book club upstairs. Molly enjoyed talking to both of them – they were widely traveled, both mundanely and on the Roads, and they always treated everyone they met as equals.

“I’m good,” Mrs. Dorr said, putting an elegant paper lace bookmark into her spot and setting the large book down next to her sage-colored tea cup. Molly had combed through every secondhand store and Goodwill in the fifty miles surrounding Carter’s Cove to put together the eclectic tea cup, saucer and tea pot collection she used in the store. Every piece was different. And if one broke, well, there was always another in the box she kept in the kitchen. “How are you and Schrodinger doing?”

Just another day in the tea shop... )

What did SA send Molly this time? Something I found last year and can’t help giggling at every time I hear it!
