One of the most important aspects of blogging etiquette is to spread the love. My good friend Brigitte does this better than anyone. I, however, have really sucked at this lately. So many of you have given me bloggy awards, shoutouts in your posts, reblogs, etc, and I haven’t paid it forward in a long time now.
So it’s time to put things right. I will have another post soon about awards and such, but today’s post is an invitation to tea—or coffee, or cocktails, or milkshakes, whatever.
Each week I’m going to choose two or three bloggers (depending on what kind of response this gets) to have over for tea, etc.
I will email them a series of wacky and/or demented questions for them to answer. Then I’ll incorporate their answers into a post about our gathering, which will take place in a luxurious setting with only the finest beverages and the most sumptuous of treats. And each week’s party will be different. We’re going to have such a good time! (And naturally I’ll link to each blogger’s site.)
If you’d care to join me, kindly RSVP below, and I promise I will get to all of you in due time. I’m already choosing venues, selecting caterers, and interviewing waitstaff in anticipation of your arrival.



I like tea. And I like parties. And I have faith your party with tea will have nothing to do with the Tea Party. if that’s the case, I’ll banter about.
We will have nothing to do with the Tea Party whatsoever, I can guarantee that, John.
I like tea and cute little pastries…now what to wear
. love this
Whatever you wear, you’ll look ravishing, Boomie. So glad you’ll be joining me!
I hope you’re serving Green Tea. I like Green Tea. And those cookies that come in the tin. I like the one that looks like a pretzel.
You know what bothers me about green tea, Chris? It’s not really green. The first time I had some, I expected it to be GREEN. Like a Star Trek drink. But it was just sort of beigy-yellow-green. But for you, I will furnish green tea and pretzel-shaped sugar cookies from the blue tin.
Yay! You rock!
Although tea is the national drink here in Newfoundland, I’m a coffee kinda girl…unless it’s noon then bring on the wine!! Whatevah…I would love to visit. Count me in!
We can always have coffee AND wine, kayjai—let’s do this!
Oh yeah, milkshakes sound wonderful.
I love a good milkshake, Brother Jon. Even though I invariably get ice cream headaches from them, they’re totally worth it. For you, we shall have milkshakes galore!
Well, we’ll just make sure your straw is smaller, or some other thing that might help. Can’t wait!
I would love to have coffee with you! Or gin. Do you like gin?
Gin and Lemonade? Bring.It.On, Lorna.
Ask me anything, ha!
After a few gin & lemonades, who knows what both of us might say?
I haven’t actually tried drunk blogging…I did however dump coffee on my laptop. Again. Hopefully getting a new one on Saturday.
I’m in … and I’m even bring a tasty red wine for us to enjoy.
Splendid! I knew I could count on you, Frank.
Meanwhile, cheers to you with this one.
Hello, yes, I will kindly accept your invitation. I will bring the mini cucumber sandwiches.
Awesome. I love mini cucumber sandwiches, they’re so much fun. They make me feel like I’m dainty. Which I’m not.
Uh, me either, and that’s we I like lying to myself with the sandwiches.
That’s why I’m so fond of you. You know, even though you’re not funny because of your looks.
Oh thank you. I try to look ugly, but, you know.
There’s only so much you can do, you know? You can put mud on a diamond, but it’s still a diamond.
Tea? I love tea. And cookies? I’ll bring the cookies. I’d love to come. I’ve been cooped up too long in my house or in my car. Looking forward to it.
It will be a pleasure to chat with you, Fern! Cookies are always an excellent addition to any tea party.
Weebs,
Le Clown will sit this one out. He’ll be lurking behind the curtains, though, and listening closely for all the gossips.
Le Clown
Le Clown, is this too tame for your magnificence™?
Brigitte,
Madame Weebles does nothing that is too tame for Le Clown. She is magnificent™ across the board. Other bloggers might benefit more from this than Le Clown. We should all share the love the way Weebles does.
Le Clown
Oh goodness! I was kidding with you, accustomed to your playing games and such. I agree 1000% — Weebs shares the love like none other and of course magnificent as everyone agrees, including me. This was just a quip from me to you.
Brigitte,
You mean I can touch-up my clown make-up not fearing I might shed tears again?
Le Clown
Whatever makes you happy, Le Clown. I certainly don’t want to tick off a clown.
. Know you hate those emoticons but I’m not doing a great job of expressing myself so I wanted to add it so there’s no misunderstanding. Please don’t cry…I mean no harm.
You’re still the Blogging Etiquette Queen, B. You inspired me to come up with this idea, you know.
This makes me feel like trying to find something that would be too WILD for you, Le Clown.
And we’ll be talking trash about you the whole time, Le Clown.
Weebs,
Good! Someone needs to do it!
Le Clown
Not much of a tea drinker but I do like me some afternoon cocktails with muffins and scones.
Sounds like a good combo to me, Storkhunter. If you can dunk muffins into tea and coffee, why not into a dry martini?
Ugh, I hate tea (big British fail there), coffee for me, preferably Irished up. Boozy milkshakes are good too.
I currently have a wells tocked drinks cabinet after a stag do weekend and everyone went home leaving all their undrunk booze, which I gladly gave a loving home to.
What?! You hate tea, Joe? My illusions have been shattered. (but then, I was born in Maine and I hate lobster, go figure)
I suppose there is a whole world of exotic teas but English tea is beige, lukewarm, milky/watery rubbish. Give me a dark butter coffee anyday.
Lobster is so expensive here, must put Maine on a to do list. Cabot Cove better be a real place too.
Milky watery rubbish? I thought I knew you, Joe!
I only drink oolong. But I make sure to put loads of sugar and milk in there so it’s drinkable. My big thing is coffee for sure. Can’t live without that stuff.
Lobster was dirt cheap here this year. Kinda tastes a little like rubbery clumps of snot to me though, but hey, whatever.
Great description, if I ever afford a lobster here I will remember that and I will order somehting else instead.
I’ve just today ordered one of those coffee pod machines. I swore against them before, being a snob about properly pumped espresso or a cafetiere allowing the coffee to infuse properly. But I had one in a hotel and the machine just went half price so I caved. They do tea pods for them too – revolting.
ooh! I want a pod thing now! (my in-laws have one and swear by it and I also turned my nose up at the idea…)
it was so tidy and quick. I’m gonna run home like charlie in his chocolate factory
Oolong is good stuff. Strong, smoky, and practically puts hair on your chest.
Why does it not surprise me that you watched Murder, She Wrote?
Have you not seen my occasional nods to Jessica on my blog, she’s been arrested and another time she was on the phone from prison to Ina Garten.
It is still on every day here so can always catch it. A friend I am seeing tonight went as far as buying the box set. I just tune in when it’s on, I especially like it when she tries her hand at an accent when they go back in time for the specials when she plays Jessica’s great great grandmother. Her southern belle accent is brilliant
Bring them along, Joe. We’ll need fortifications.
Great, I make a mean mojito
Can I wear while gloves? I am going to wear white gloves. And pearls. I’ll also bring you a hostess gift. Can you tell I am southern?
And a fan, Em in case we must fan ourselves from the heat. Mine has white lace and unicorns on it.
And what kind of Southern belle DOESN’T have a fan with white lace and unicorns?
A Southern belle at a tea party? I can’t think of anything better, Emily.
Spiffy idea. One looks forward to an afternoon tea at chez Weebles with the greatest of delight. Too-da-loo!
Enchanted, Nigel! I might invite Joe Kittinger along so he can tell us stories.
sounds like delicious fun–consider this my RSVP
Yay LouAnn!
Victorians KNOW how to do tea. They even had dresses that were specifically meant for having tea. I’m in. But, be gentle. I’m really a bit shy!
I’ll need your help in selecting proper tea attire, Wanda. And I promise, I’ll be gentle. I might invite Gregory Peck along to soothe your nerves.
Way to turn me into a drewling idiot!
I agree with you about Brigitte. She is so lovely and generous in her blogging. And I love the idea of a tea party! I’ll bring some beignets back from New Orleans!
Fantastic, Delicious! I love those beignets. Beignets and cafe au lait, those folks in New Orleans really know what they’re doing.
Gimme a couple weeks and let me bring the drunken bear and my presence at your blog’s tea-party will be the talk of the… wardrobe…
We’ll have to restock our liquor stores for him, Val, but by all means, bring him along!
Ohhh I love Tea’s with cucumber sandwiches. I would love to participate.
Wonderful, Rebecca! Tea and cucumber sandwiches it is!
Very cool idea! We watch Toy Story around here a lot, so all I can think about is Buzz saying, “I am Mrs. NESBITT!” I can also bring a sweet toy pink teapot that sings super polite songs in a British accent.
Ooooh, bring the teapot!! Yes!
Great idea – I’m in!
Awesome. I’ll make sure to have a truckload of Milanos waiting for you.
So-weet! I am a big fan of cucumber sandwiches and any variety of finger foods, the more fingers in them the better.
Me too! I find that they taste better if the fingers are braised for a while. Too tough and stringy otherwise.
I would love to attend some tea (or possibly strong black coffee!) ~ RSVP’ing -
Tea, strong black coffee, whatever you like, Rutabaga—it’s all good.
Crumpets too?
Capital idea dear Madame! I take my tea with lemon and a spot of honie.
(my muse has a British accent. I don’t know why.)
Your muse is classier than mine, Honie. Mine sounds like a Mafia goon. Maybe that’s why I’m not inspired all that often.
Nah, she’s fakin’ it.
HA! I think your writing is puulenty inspired.
Yo Weebsy, cut me open
What a cool idea! I drink tea every single day. Once 4 pm rolls around, I bust out my tea pot, put on my fuzzy slippers and wrap myself into a warm quilt and nibble on sugar cookies. Must be the English blood in me.
Then I’ll wear my fuzzy slippers for our tea party too. And I’ll bring plenty of sugar cookies.
Heavens! Of course I accept your invitation, lovely Madame. I look forward to it with great anticipation. Thank you for this most kind invitation.
(Like Honie my muse has a British accent but not a very good one, more like Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins.)
Grippy! What kind of party would it be without you? We can have Pepsi, tea, coffee, whatever you want!
As long as you like Martinis (and those always have gin, not vodka), I’m in!
By definition, a martini has gin in it. I don’t do vodka martinis. You’re on!
Great idea. I’ll bring the cakes. Proper English tea mind, none of your Liptons!
Even *I* don’t drink Lipton’s. Perhaps a nice malty Assam or Ceylon?
Sounds good.Could even go for a smokey Lapsang Souchong
I would be honored to attend. Shall I bring the wine? The hard cider? Perhaps a lovely plate of scones?
Bring whatever strikes your fancy, Mike! I’ll provide the Muppets videos.
I am so there!
What a lovely idea. Petit Fours, cucumber sandwiches and nice cup of Darjeeling! LargeSelf will be attending!
Darjeeling is such a nice tea, isn’t it? I’d have insisted on you joining me for tea even if you hadn’t RSVP’d, you know.
This is an awesome idea.
So this means you’ll be attending, yes? Perfect!
Tea sounds lovely. I can bring pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.
Ohhhhh, you had me at the pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, Sandy.
Weebs, first of all thanks for the shout out and compliment. You and I talked about this so I’d like to be your first guest to this worldwide event. I’ve been waiting for your email, as we discussed. So I’ll volunteer to be your first victim, er guest, and let’s do this, my friend (btw, when I said let’s do something creative, I should have known you do it UP RIGHT). xxoo
You’re on, lady. But of course I don’t want this to be our only collaboration—check your email!
I’m all for a cup of tea and a nice chit chat, count me in.
Great, Leo! Dogs are welcome too, by the way. I’ll make sure to have a nice selection of dog biscuits on hand.
I’m in, provided there are scones involved. With boysenberry jam, if you please.
No tea party would be complete without good scones, legion. I love boysenberry jam, it’s hard to find (at least around here it is) but for you, I shall procure it.
Tea? Fuck yeah!
Well hello Mr. Reclining Gentleman sir! It’s so good to see your comment here! Of course for you I will have plenty of jasmine Earl Grey on hand, and custard creams.
You know how to spoil me mme weebs
Ah! I am following you but for some strange reason I’m not getting your postings. I had to MANUALLY find you. The horror!
This is suCh a great idea!! Let’s tea!
That’s it, I’m going to WordPress HQ to protest. My reader has been funky lately too, so it’s not just you. And yes, let’s tea!
go git em tiger!!
A legal drink and drive, why not? I’ll wait at the Magic Bus Stop for you to come by.
Hiya Mad Queen Linda, good to see you! The Magic Bus will pick you for tea, so you can tipple to your heart’s content.
I like it! I’m in!
I was hoping you’d say that, SocietyRed! I’ll make cookies.
I’ve been waiting for your cookies
Pick me, PICK ME! not so much for the featuring but I LOVE TEA PARTIES!!!!
You and I will have ourselves a good time, Nancy!
WooHoo! and Yee Haw!
Sounds like a blast! I’ll bring pie …
I love pie! Yay! Looking forward to chatting with you, Elyse!
I’d love to come and be the Mad Hatter. Or at least the Dormouse…
Delighted to make your acquaintance, beadstork! I think you’ll enjoy the tea party.
How refined! I look forward to reading the transcripts to your tea parties!
Hi Porkchop! You’ll be joining me for tea as well, won’t you?
I’d love to!
Yay!
What a fabulous idea…shall I bring a plate? With something on it? (If I get an invitation)
Of course you get an invitation, Jen. Bring a plate if you like, but there will be much refreshment for all!
I am in! Although I do hope that it won’t become a hoity-toity tea party and that rude jokes would be acceptable!
Not only will rude jokes be acceptable, Bennie, they’ll be *expected.*
I’ll be the one with the parasol. Who accidentally spills hot water into her lap.
No problem. I’ll have Sven, our hunky steward, take care of you.
RSVP – done! Hiehie, this is my first time…(yes, being invited to tea). Being in Saudi Arabia – socializing isn’t a frequent affair. Looking forward to it!
Greetings, Dreams, Dunes & Dates, and welcome!! I will be very happy to take tea with you!
Asklotta
accepts with pleasure
Madame Weebles’s
kind invitation for tea
on any given day Madame Weebles desires!
I like your fancy reply, Lotta. We’ll have a lovely tea!
I look forward to it, thank you!
I’m so looking forward to snooping on your “tea parties” – you have such fabulous visitors. And an invitation would be delightful – I love my oolong! (Am I the only one who thinks that sounds like a filthy double entendre? Jeez, no wonder I don’t get invited to tea parties very often.)
On the contrary, I think you should be invited to more tea parties with a line like “I love my oolong.” So you’re sure as hell coming to MY party.
Woohoo! Thanks!
Madame, how very kind of you. I’d love to be invited if space permits. It looks like you have many guests. You have your work cut out for you here. But, I would love to come to your party. I’m sure you would throw a lovely party.
Of course space permits, Bumble! Yes, there are many more guests than I expected, but the more the merrier!
Then I would be delighted! I accept, Madame.
Flourish the pinky!
MMmmmyeeeeeesssssssshhhhhh!
So dainty and demure, Sig!
I would be most honored to be a guest at Madame’s tea party.
Lanier!!!! I would be most honored to have you join me!
This is a great idea! And I think it’s good Karma to spread the love around.
That’s what I was thinking, a fun way to share the bloggy love, Lovely!
Sure I’d love to come to the party! Tea Par-tay!
And for you, Sandee, of course there will be cake.
Oooo goodie! Hopefully that pink cake you made that I have on my side board
I drink a lot of tea–mostly green tea or Yerba mate. As a youngster I liked mushroom tea, and I still love the tea H.C.
I would love to participate if there’s still room.
I would be sad if you weren’t part of it, Smak. Tea! And more tea! I’m not even sure, is tea HC even legal? Eh, we’ll get some for you anyway.
Well, you know I’m not much of a joiner, but a tea party where I only have to participate by responding to email questions? Hey, I can do that. But you can put me at the bottom of the list. I’m in no rush to socialize, and there are others who are far better at it than me.
I’ll be gentle with you, Carrie, I promise.
Your guest list intimidates with both size and content, but it there’s room for another at your table, I’ll happily dig out my tea-drinking spats and Homberg.
There is room indeed, my inky friend.
Great plan! I’d love to come, but do all the others first. By the time you’ve managed to do that, it must be summer and I’ll have time to answer
.
It will take some time to party with all these folks, NBI, but I’m going to do it!
Weebs, you can ask me ANYTHING you want over an entire pot of tea face to face if you’re ever in the mood for a real world lame adventure.
That’s definitely something we should plan, but does that mean you won’t participate here?
You know that I am on hiatus until a date TBD after the election … I happen to have some tix to Discovery Columbus November 1. Throwing that out there. You could toss your questions at me in front of the statue.
Sign me up! But we only have corrupt tea in chicago, fyi.
We’ll have to counter the corrupt tea with chocolate or something, Jules.
always with the chocolate. ALWAYS.
I’d come for tea. I may have to answer in pictures though…
Oooh, that would be fun, artsifrtsy!!
Yes, yes, tea and all. Lovely.
But will there be those silly little finger sandwiches, with the crusts cut off?
Love those…
Naturally, Guap. I’m all classy and shit.
Word.
Tea with Weebles? That sounds deeee-lightful. I’d love to have tea, really any chance where I can dress up as the grandmother from Downton Abbey.
Oh boy, tea with calahan! Yay! I bet you’ll look fetching in that ensemble, too.
D’oh, I’m already arriving late to the party! Can’t wait to read all about it!
Never too late to the party. Will you be joining in the festivities?
I would happily accept an invitation to tea with you fair Madame. I look forward to reading about your future teas and I have no doubt I will be entertained to the fullest!
I am pleased that you’ve accepted, nekkidsoul!
Ooooh Madame please let me your humble reader sit in on one of those
I can even promise to eat half a portion in my newfound health awareness xx
You’re in, India! But only half a portion? My caterers are the best. And all the foods are calorie free.
In that case, I’m all in :>
I love demented questions. And tea. Will there be cake? If there’s cake, I’m in!
Many cakes, limmster! Looking forward to having tea and cake with you!
Ooooooo! I love tea! I’m even a tea snob! (Also known as a pain in the ass) I’ll bring pound cake! Can I give demented answers?
I love pound cake! You’re a tea snob? No problem, my parties will have only the world’s finest teas. I think you’ll be pleased. And I’d be disappointed if you didn’t give demented answers.
I’d love to attend!! I hope the Mad Hatter will be there, and that little mouse that hides in the sugar bowl.
I’ve invited them both, but even if they don’t show up we’ll have a good time, Lyssapants!
I would be most happy to accept your lovely invitation. I shall have my valet select somthing appropriate to wear
Wonderful! And just think, you won’t have to cook! I’m sure you’ll look smashing, whatever your valet chooses for you.
It sounds like a wonderful idea, and I would love to attend! And what a great way to get to know your other guests.
Great, JM–this will be fun!
Beer me, please!
Yeaaaaaah, Harper! I’ll make sure our bartenders have plenty of Westmalle Tripel and plenty of other beers with beaucoup de hops for you.
You are a joy, Madame! HF
I don’t like tea. Can I put alcohol in tea?
You can have whatever you like, Mags! Coffee, booze, boozy coffee, it’s all good!
What an incredible way to promote your own blog while still making people feel special
I’m down!
I thought it would be a fun, different way to share the love, you know? You’re in, right?
I want to come to tea! Or coffee! Or jello shooters!
Why not all three, Wendy?
Sounds good Mme. Weebly.
You are going to pick two or three from all these people … wow! Hmmmm … which is easier to get: Freshly Pressed or a Weebs invite?
No selection process, I mean that I’ll choose 2 or 3 people each week for a party. I’m getting to EVERYONE! Ambitious, yes, but I’m game. So actually, Frank, I’m pretty easy. Wait, that came out wrong.
Yes – I got the scoop that Weebs is not only easy, but pretty easy!
Why to stay with the line!
Ah ha … I didn’t thinking about the reoccurring teas.
BTW – I hope you watched the Paso Zin clip because it cracks me up every time.
Ooh! Goodie! My first invitation to a tea, that is so exciting. I will likely be that strange person sitting in the corner reading instead of talking to people, sipping a chocolate milkshake in one hand and some exotic cocktail in the other.
Oh no, coffee2words, not at MY party you won’t. I mean, you can absolutely have the cocktail and chocolate milkshake, but you and I will be having a nice talk!
Can’t wait to see (read) about this later. Such an awesome idea.
But surely you’ll be joining me for tea as well, MainerChick, yes?
I would be delighted Madame Weebles. Thank you.
how will you ever squeeze all of us in? what a smashing good idea.
I’ll probably be doing a tea party once a week until the 2013 All-Star break, A. But hey, there are far worse things!
hell yes there are far far far worse things.
Heady company here, but with KayJai holding up one arm and LeClown on the other, I could be ready by the time you get to the bottom of the barrel.
All right Archon!! I have faith that your fellow Canadians can get you here for a party in good time.
You didn’t mention florists. I’ve been known to PUNCH SOMEONE IN THE FACE for including too much Lathyrus odoratus in a certain bridal bouquet. What am I trying to say? I’ve got your back, MW, and I’m in (but I will appear as Gemini Girl/aka GG/aka the self-righteous assistant on Le Clown’s blog, so all bets, manners, and possibly taste will be, ummmm….off).
Floral arrangements are being taken care of, Stacie, but I’m glad to know you’re with me, Stacie. Just today I had to scratch out the eyes of a florist who tried to put daisies in the table settings instead of Gerbera daisies. BITCH. And no worries about the manners or taste–I have none, so why should you?
Right on, Madame. I drink tea every morning by the way. Black. Two cubes of sugar. Scalding hot. I’ll bring my favorite blend. =)
Did someone say tea and pasties? Well get on with the hiring and let me know when I can have a look… oh, and some tea.
So you like THAT kind of party, eh Ted? We’ll see what we can do for you.
I’ve arrived a little late to the party, which is weird for me since I’m early for everything. But I would love to share a cuppa with you Madame, and everyone else as well.
This reminds me of a Trivial Pursuit question. It asked “What weighs 5,275 tons? (Or some outrageous number; I can’t remember exactly.) The answer: All the tea in China.
And that’s what were gonna need for this tea party.
That sounds about right, purplemary!
-grin- By the look of your comments I’m booking myself in for midway through 2013! I just hope you have some coffee left by then.
I’ll make sure there are enough beverages for EVERYONE, Meeka!
-cough- And a few cookies… yes?
Chuffed pink at the thought. I’ll bring the marmite.
Enchanted, Poet McGonagall. I can provide Bovril as well if you wish.
I don’t seriously need to request an invite, do I? You’ve been teasing me with tea and vegan cookies for months. Months!
It’s true. I have. And of course you need no invitation. You and I will be chatting over vegan cookies soon. I’ll see what I can do about the meat bananas.
I knew I could count on you.
Pick me! PICK ME! [jumping up and down until the dishes in the cupboards rattle]
My wonderful daisyfae, of course you’re coming to tea! Or cocktails. Whichever.
[no longer jumping. picking up glass shards from floor] Aw… shucks… i’ll have scotch. neat. i’ll bring some candy corn oreos, dipped in white chocolate.
I love you.
Bahahaha….. you’re going to be having a LOT of tea parties. Over 200 RSVPs…. Intense. Good luck. I do love me a cup of Earl Grey and would love to share one with you three years from now.
I’m going to be drowining in tea by the end of this, Kimberly. And welcome, by the way! You shall join me for Earl Grey as well, of course.
Weebles,
Can a commoner like myself crash your party? I won’t bother anyone – I’ll just be the guy in the hoodie in the corner drinking warm Schlitz and spiking your tea kettle with Rumplemintz. By the way – the spell checkie thing here doesn’t like the word Rumplemintz and right clicking it – the suggested respelling is Simpleminded.
Your friend,
the ipc
Why the fuck not? I’ve never had Rumplemintz, so it’s about time I did.
YAY TEA! Alice knows a lot about tea parties. See what I did there? Invite meeee! I’m more important than those other 200 people.
Hmmmm…. cucumber sandwiches, gin and lemonade, cookies in ‘tins’… My God, I think I have stumbled into a blog of Brits (and a Canadian)!!! I’m sure The Reclining Gentleman has his Tea Cosy all ready. Well, I was here earlier, so put me ahead of that brat Aliceatwonderland. I’m Important… I’m an American!!!
I’m an American who pretends to be British. And girls go first, rude one.
Ha! You win then…
This is an international community here at Fear No Weebles, Ted. But as always, Americans rule.
All in good time, Alice, all in good time.
Wow, offer a free drink and look at how many friends you get….Beer here.
Comin’ right up, RRD!
Well I’m way at the end of the Totem Pole (# of respondees) so can I at least carry the drink tray for you?
(great idea this is BTW)
Oh, I’m not going to be going by the order in which people posted, Lynne—I’m going to choose randomly, much more fair this way. So we might be partying together sooner than you think!
*clink* *clink* goes the party glasses
Absolutely Fabulous idea!! However tea and finger sandwiches sound too clean cut for me, lets make it coffee and a marlboro light and I’m in. (Cause that’s how I roll in cyber space; you can still smoke in cyber space right?)
In cyberspace, smoking is totally fine, Jean! Coffee and cigs will be provided to your heart’s content.
Sounds like a jolly good idea! I look forward to seeing the results.
You’ll be joining the party, correct, Faith?
That is correct, and if there is the option of having gin and tonic instead of tea, well, that would be lovely!
yes.
You’re so easy. I like that about you.
likewise.
Will there be chocolate, and good tea? I don’t drink coffee.
This sounds like a cool idea.
Of course there will be tea, my English friend. And as much chocolate as you can handle.
MMMM… I like tea! And I see chocolates are on the menu as well….
I apparently missed a whole bunch of RSVPs here. Sorry about that. Tea and chocolates galore!
I hope you’ll give us sufficient time to properly polish our bon mots.
Apologies for the tardy reply—of course I will give you plenty of advanced notice to practice bon mots, select your wardrobe, etc etc. It’s only fair.
I know I’m late to the party, but can I still get in on all this wonderful tea party love? I have a tiny pink tea set somewhere that I would be happy to bring along. And vodka to put in it, of course.
This reply is ridiculously late, sorry. But a pink tea set??? You MUST bring it, Kathy.
I don’t really eat much, but I do love a good party….
So sorry for the late comment, Eva—and of course you must be part of the party!
This sounds like such a fun idea! Consider this my rsvp. And I prefer my tea with a spot of crown royal, thanks.
Duly noted, Crown Royal and tea, got it!
I would like to come to tea – may there please be little crustless cucumber sandwiches?
So sorry to be getting to these comments so late, debaucherysoup—please come to tea! I LOVE those little cucumber sandwiches, we’ll have many of those.
This sounds fun! If you ever feel like inviting someone mental, I’d be up for some virtual tea!
Let’s do this, Angel! I’m sorry I’m so late with my reply, but let’s do this!
Wow, am I ever late with this RSVP. Congrats on the excellent response!
And wow, am I ever late with my reply, Margie, sorry!! I missed this whole batch of comments. Thanks!
Jeez louise looks like many other people like a good tea party.
Hi Rosie! I’m catching up on all these comments I somehow missed—you’ll be joining me for tea as well, won’t you?
Just call me ms. tardy to the party. How did I miss this invitation? Caterers, venues, menus…so glad you’re handling this, dear Madame! xoM
And I’m asking myself, How did I miss all these comments? We’re going to have a good time at this party, my friend!
I fear I may have missed the tea party, but I was asleep in the teapot :O
Mea culpa for responding so late, Juliet—you have not missed the party at all, but I hope your nap in the teapot was comfy!
You know . . .great minds think alike, right?
Am I too late to RSVP? Looky here at how many responses you received! You are going to be swimming in tea. Or flood waters.
You are never too late to RSVP, Robin. I, of course, am insanely late in replying to your RSVP. But no problem. We’ll have all kinds of tea, coffee, booze, whatever.
Are you still doing this?!?! Because that would be AWESOME!! I could show up in full Batman costumes and even bring a few homemade goodies myself! Like Three-Layered Oreo Fudge? Or how about some Truffle-Stuffed Oreo Cupcakes? Perhaps, S’moas (Samoas and S’mores have a baby) is more your thing? Let me know!
I *am* still doing this! Yes please, bring it!! And I need to know more about these S’moas you speak of.
WOO! Well…it all started with a long sidelong look from Samoas that made S’mores start sweating bucketfuls of marshmallow… Some time later, out pops these adorably delicious S’moas, that almost get squished in a car accident with yours truly. It’s probably best if you just read the post

I will go and read this now!
Thank you!
I know everyone has already said this, but AMAZING idea! I can’t wait to see what types of questions you ask/how people respond! If it’s not too late, I’d love to RSVP as well. But if it is, I’m still excited to see the posts!
Hi Jillian!! It is not too late, I am thrilled to have you join in!
