The holidays are upon us once again.
I received a Thanksgiving card in the mail yesterday,
I received a Thanksgiving card in the mail yesterday,
and while admiring it this morning,
I am having a cup of Yerba Mate tea.
The card was made by Krystal, age 16, Houston, Tx.
This card celebrates the artwork
created by young patients
in the Children's Art Project...(CAP)
The Art Project is
part of the Univ. of Tx.
MD Anderson Cancer Center,
and it gives kids with cancer
the chance to shine through art.
I think art is essential for children.
Kimmie has more links to tea posts,

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Savor the Day!

Hi Yvonne, I agree - art is essential, especially in any of the healing arts. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for your visit and kind words. penny
I love children's art. And how nice to get a Thanksgiving day card in the mail :)
I'm betting that you make your own yerbe matte tea .... Something that I ought to try. Now that I'm familiar with chai tea (I even made my own spice mixture) I am feeling very adventurous .... Although I always start my day with Irish breakfast (now that I don't drink coffee anymore)
Happy Thanksgiving!
happy thanksgiving and I love the card
Love the card. Always nice to get cards and letters in the mail. I was just talking to some gals yesterday about how it seems as if its becoming a lost art. Sad really.
happy t day and have a happy thanksgiving! wish you all the best! x
Neat card! I love the word "savor" and have used it in a couple of projects. Happy Belated Tuesday!
Lovely card and a lovely tea post. Happy T2 (Tea and Thanksgiving!)
I love that hand painted card! Happy Thanksgiving blessings, Mary Helen
absolutely great card and program! Thanks for sharing!

Lovely card. Such a wonderful project.
May I ask you how you knew about Yerba mate tea? It´s the first time I´ve found somebody mentioning it on line. I´m Argentinian and it´s kind of our national beverage. :)
It is always so special to get a handmade gift. How wonderful for the children and for the receivers of their art work. I was also pleased to see the small strainer with the loose tea. Last week my tea "ball" got stuck together and I could not get it apart. I was going to buy a new one, but saw your post and realized that I have a small strainer also!
lovely card and special project... art is so unique in the way it makes everything better and easier... bit like tea, I am a total addict and couldn't survive without art or tea xx
That Thanksgiving card is beautiful! Krystal is very talented. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Tammy
