an inheritance

One of the things I’ve done lately, especially during this Christmas holiday, is going through what my grandpa left us. An entire house, full of stuff. Cheap, worn things as well as old, high-quality heirlooms. The things have been equally distributed to the two children and four grandchildren and yesterday, I finally found places to store all the fine china and nice linen that I had been chosen to pass on.

All these golden-edged tea cups and silver cutlery, I really don’t know when to use.

Or, maybe this will give me the perfect opportunity to host that high tea party that I’ve been talking about for years. Yes! That is what I shall do. High tea at Katja’s. Menu:  tea, lemon and honey, freshly baked scones, at least four different kinds of marmalade, clotted cream and butter. Oh, I’m so excited!
