{I pretend I'm being healthy if I don't get the chocolate covered ones}
D and I managed to eat an entire roll of them over the weekend, which is why we don't keep them in the house more often. I wish I could restrain myself and just have two every afternoon with my tea. Sadly, restraint is not one of my strong suits.
I did do other things this weekend besides eat too many biscuits and drink tea. Namely, a bit of cooking, a bit of sewing and a lot of daydreaming. Projects and recipes coming up this week. I hope you all had lovely weekends.
I've never been a big tea person, but I drink so much coffee I think it's time to make the leap.
ReplyDeleteWhat flavor is your favorite?
I love those chocolate covered ones.
ReplyDeleteDigestives are absolutely my favourite.
ReplyDeleteThe best is to dip them in your tea.
I could eat endless amounts of them.... Together with endless amounts of tea. In my perfect world I would. Without any weight gain.
you're so right about the name of these little cookies. when i was young, i even convinced my mom that they were crackers...until i finished a box in an afternoon and she caught on.
ReplyDeleteoh, so good. and with the chocolate, even better! i adore your little cup and saucer! {and i loved your breakfast post on smitten--so cute!}
ReplyDeletewhen I was in high school I used to have a half of roll of digestives and a diet coke for lunch.
ReplyDeleteI hoard Digestives and hide them from my family. They are hard to come by in Nevada.
ReplyDeletecheers!
Never heard of the cookies, but they look good and the cup and saucer are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny! I have an unreal attachment to Hob Nots--the one's with the blue top tube! I can't help but eat four at a time. They're gone so, so quickly!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect weekend! Love the photo, your china is gorgeous, and I totally are that Digestives are so much tastier than they sound...mmmm.... gotta go find some!
ReplyDeletePS, that tea is the perfect colour!!
ReplyDeletelooks fantasic! i LOVE tea. i've never tried the digestive cookies before but am definitely gonna look for them now. thanks
ReplyDeleteBRING BACK TEATIME! How did we inherit the puritan work ethic and not teatime? Lame. I say biscuits and tea for everybody, with no guilt at all!
ReplyDeletefabulous composition - that tea really is the perfect color, and i love your china! i feel you on digestives; we put sleeves of them in welcome bags at our wedding, and wouldn't you know, we accidentally bought a ton of extras. :)
ReplyDeletemy weekend was quietly nice - glad to hear yours was too.
ReplyDeleteOooO love digestive cookies! I gotta hit up World Market after work to put up some. The chocolate ones are my fav! :)
ReplyDeleteHave you had the ones covered in chocolate? Supremely addictive. Love them.
ReplyDeleteOk so I reread your post, and saw your caption about the chocolate covered ones. Please disregard my previous comment, I got a little bit excited thinking about digestives. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso - ADORABLE cup and saucer. xo
i LOVE digestive biscuits!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love tea and the biscuits would be a nice addition. I adore your tea and saucer too.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with your plate - and feeling a biscuit tin raid coming on...
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of them until 3 years ago I found them in Greece! LOVE them! They are hard to come by, but my BFF brought me home another bundle last time she was in Greece - what a great friend!
ReplyDeleteI'm just crazy over your cup & saucer!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely ... and sounds like you had a great weekend! Lovely photo too.
ReplyDeletei love digestives {got hooked on them while living in london} and a cuppa tea. why are they named digestives??
ReplyDeleteYes why are they called digestives?
ReplyDeleteLove them biscuits :).
Oh, you've got the cup from Anthro. Why didn't I buy that (2 years ago?) before it sold out. Do you have more, and the teapot too....love all those seashell-like pieces. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting and sounds like you had a great weekend! Lovely photo too.
ReplyDeleteThese look so good. I love your teacup and saucer!
ReplyDeleteDigestive biscuits remind me of my Nana in Scotland - she always has them around - and of course has the control to eat just one or two each tea-time - but I'm totally on the same page as you - if I knew where to buy them around here I would eat them all! Tea is my fav!
