Alice Cantrell gives us a sneak peak on her blog of her up-coming book: Tea & Cake with the Saints.

I blogged about it some more on my blog and posted some pictures of the tea hosted by Alice at our mini-4Real conference this past August.

It's a hospitality book written by a fine Southern lady and is sure to be a treat for all of us seeking nurturing beauty.

The book is due to be shipped November 10th.

I, for one, can't wait.

Looks like a lovely book, Cay.

I'm wondering if maybe we should do a tea/promotional for this book at our Catholic bookshop here in town? That would be fun.

I read a prepublication version and did a review of it here. It truly is a gem of a book--perfect for the girls on your Christmas list.

This books is just what I've searching for. It will be under the tree for my daughter.

And I loved the idea Elizabeth had of tucking this into an apron along with supples for starting a homemaking journal. Just perfect for my little girl.

Thanks,
Janet
