August 9, 2008 Eternity Tea Room

When we travel I will often consult the website Teamap to see if there are any tearooms in the area. Fortunately I found one in nearby Everett called the Eternity Tea Room. The food was delicious, and our hostess, Debbie, was quite charming and gracious. She told how the tearoom came to be, that she had a vision that she was to open a tea room, and in this vision God showed her exactly what it should look like. The interior is a peaceful periwinkle blue, (one might wonder heavenly blue?) with blue accents throughout, giving a very peaceful atmosphere.




Here is the menu: we chose luncheon rather than tea. The hardest part was deciding what kind of tea we wanted, as this picture shows just the front page of the tea selections.



Some shots of the interior.







There were a couple of tables with ladies enjoying fellowship and tea. Here is what the one table looked like after. Just imagine this tier heaped with goodies!

And our plate of scones.



Debbie also has a gift shop where besides loose tea with the most delicious sounding names, there are also tea accoutrements for sale. She had the most beautiful tea cozies, I just loved them all. But I chose this one with embroidered violas on the front. A very talented lady by the name of Amy Haffling, who lives in Martinsburg PA, makes these one of a kind cozies. There is only one made of each pattern, so I’ve got this one! Isn’t it beautiful? We also bought some tea. Who could pass up teas with the names of chocolate raspberry truffle and French crème brulee?!
