In addition to celebrating Valentines and our Mystery Tea Party

 in February  our first new event is all about Camellias,

 scheduled for  February 6, 2010.    We invite you to join us

 for a special  presentation about Camellias.  During teatime

we will have an horticulture expert here to share his

 knowledge about raising Camellias. He is a walking

 encyclopedia regarding every exact detail of Camellias.

 This will be your chance to probe his mind about

 gardening in general. 

Stay tune for more upcoming celebrations!

Cheers,

Ellen

special visitor. “The Mistletoe Tester”  (aka Derald)

stopped in to visit us and his cute wife, Shirley. 

 Shirley has been employed for me since the

 tea room opened. She prepares the delicious food

 we serve to our guests.  She also has a beautiful

 voice and sings to our guests. We love you

Shirley & Derald!

serenaded them with Christmas songs.  I was especially touched

as she sang “O Holy Night.”  We love having Brianna and her

 mom, Susan, visit us at Camellia Rose.  We look forward to

having her sing for us in the future. We are blessed!

We have met so many wonderful people through our

tea room and some have become special friends.  Today

our friends from Walt Disney’s Grand Floridian Tea Room

were here for tea.  Dotty and Pat are not only our regular

guests but Camellia Rose friends!  They are a blessing to us.

We will see you again soon ladies!  Merry Christmas!

“MERRY CHRISTMAS!”

I just love saying that to everyone this time of year.

We have been celebrating Christmas everyday with our

guests.  From the beautiful Christmas lights and

decor, Christmas music we play all day long, our

delicious food, which includes the cutest little

Christmas mice and scrumptious beef tenderloin,

and of course the many delicious teas. But more

importantly we are celebrating the birth of our

Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Yesterday our guests

were reminded of the true JOY of Christmas during

our  mystery tea party.  Then we had an old fashion

Christmas celebration with carolers singing our

favorite Christmas carols.  It is hard to believe Christmas

is almost here.  I want to invite you to discover the JOY

we are celebrating at Camellia Rose.  Please stop in so

we can wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS personally!

JOY IN CHRIST,

Ellen
