- In one of my very first blog posts, see link below, I did show these Lady Alexander Rose by Queen Anne cup & saucers with some fragrant Obdam Narcissus.
- Since those highly fragrant daffodils bloom again, the few that we have..., I want to show you these photos again.
- The first cup & saucers in this pattern we did find while vacationing in Canada.
- They came from Bank Street in Ottawa and also found them at Replacements Ltd. see above link.
- The table cloth is hand crocheted by me.
- LOOK what I managed to find with those lovely Lady Alexander Rose by Queen Anne cups & saucers?
- A handkerchief that matches the china exactly and it works great as a little doily to use with this set.
- Do you also put four cups like this together? It saves space in the china cabinet!
- Those highly fragrant Obdam Narcissus are heavenly too... Makes one happy.
- For me, SPRING is the best time of the year.
- This is inside our kitchen.
- You can read the QUEEN ANNE China markings under the cups.
- Does any of you also have this Queen Anne Lady Alexander Rose china ?

- On our usual health food shopping trip to Whole Foods Market Ponce de Leon in Atlanta last week we found these Large SUMO Mandarins. So they had to come home with us.
- Have you already tried those Easy to peel and Sweet, Juicy SUMO Mandarins?
- You ought to; this is something yummy from Japan. You can read about this super fruit here: SUMO Citrus. Just click on it.
- Their claim: Enormously good to eat is TRUE!
- It looks wrinkly and has a funny crown, it is also Large!
- Two of them came home with us...
- Coming from Japan and now being cultivated in California...
- Peeling them was VERY easy... No seeds and VERY SWEET AND JUICY!
- Their claim is TRUE: enormously good to eat!
- Have you tried one?
Today I will show you the final room of our Rose Suite; husband Pieter's Work Shop. A handyman like him, needs such a place! It is also my shipping center for any sales from my Zen Cart powered on line boutique Mariette's Back to Basics. So have a look with me and then we're done with the entire tour of Our Rose Suite. Previous posts you will find below.
- Yes, it is written on the door...
At first, husband Pieter left this floor just as it was; concrete without tiles.
Finally after one-and-a-half year he did go ahead and put in the very same Spanish Volcano beige tiles as for the entire Rose Suite's flooring.
- Easy to clean now and it is a very neat room!
- My Dad, together with Pieter did lay these tiles! That was in October of 2005, when we'd given Mom & Dad airline tickets to come to the USA with us. It was the last time that they visited us, since Mom is on dialysis we can no longer invite them over as she is not able to
- travel.
- Boxes are also being stored here for world wide shipping of any sales from my Zen Cart powered on line boutique: Mariette's Back to Basics.
- This is also my shipping center and husband Pieter does take care of that part.
- All my loyal customers worldwide now know where it is being packed for shipping.
- Yes, here too we do have the same TRINITY EcoStorage™ NSF 6-Tier Wire Shelving Racks on wheels from Costco, as in our Pantry (see link below). They are super and make the room very light as they are not solid.
Also for the time being I keep my photo albums here till I get them all digitalized.
Scanning the slides and than checking off the photos... Quite a task but one day it will be done!
Do you have a work shop in your home? Or is it outside of the home in a separate building?
