Snow & an American came for Tea!

It has been a funny few days - full of surprises!
First there was the arrival of Merry.
For another, I keep waking up to a white world.
I wanted to take a closer look - but, Mother insisted I put on a pullover first.
Just, look @ me - she will have to take it in...
It was far tooo big, yet there was no reasoning with her.
Duly clad, I then peeked outside - the garden looked awfully chilly...And, white...However, bravely ventured out @ the front of my abode and measured the snow - 4 inches allowing for ruler error...
So, decided to stay cosy & warm indoors, which was fortuitous, as I had my third surprise of the week - an unexpected but exceedingly welcome caller.
Dear WFT Miss Asta accompanying her daddy, on a brief UK visit, took a side trip to Dreamingspires specifically to have afternoon tea with me...I was delighted to entertain her!
Such a charming girl.
Saw her off in the snow, her next call Jackson... I gather, she made it safely despite the atrocious travel conditions.
Hugs,
