We also want to tell all of our Tea friends how much we've enjoyed your friendship this past year ~ our lives have been enriched by knowing you! We that hope you are inspired to drop your dear friends a note today to tell them how much you cherish their friendship...

    This really touched me...thanks for posting these beautiful quotes on Friends. I feel so blessed to have found Miss Spenser's tea house, and when I entered I was surrounded by Kindred Spirits, the truest friends of all! :)
