Tea with Mrs. B
United States
Приєднався 15 бер 2013
At Tea with Mrs. B, we have embraced simple stories and tips to achieve unforgettably good manners. We view social graces as timeless art forms, things to be held onto like treasured antiques. No computer screen can provide the comfort of a thoughtful gesture. No text will feel as memorable as a hand written letter. But for now, that is what we have to work with so perhaps we can embrace them and practice a few of these lovely lessons.
Mrs. B provides modern manners solutions befitting contemporary challenges. Follow along with Mrs. B's "Manners in a Minute" lessons as she tackles etiquette practices and emphasizes the gentle art of being attentive, kind and generous, even when it seems difficult.

I found a vintage two handles soup bowl set at a flea market and I use it for tea. My favorite are the two with two handles.
Oh! How fun! Good for you. Tea always tastes better in a nice tea cup!
@@TeawithMrsB Indeed! And they are lovely! I love your videos!
We shall make more for you then! @@rolo6932
I remember going to your classes it really brought me a lot of joy to come there really wish I could go back
You are invited back anytime! I am so glad you were able to enjoy the tearoom. We'll wait for you with bells on. Hugs, Mrs. B
Only man have mustache.
All of the teacups are looks glorious and perfectly fancy.
I really liked the hot chocolate tea cup
Thank you! They only exist in antique shops now.
When I call the tea place you don’t answer the phone
Oh my gosh -
I remember you from when I was a kidddd what the heck-
I love your videos. You're so beautiful And well spoken.
How kind of you to say. Thank you for the compliment.
What about asking if they should remove their shoes?
I like the older double handled one. I collect antique tea cups, mustache cups/mugs, Souvenir cup/mugs and Shaving Mugs. The Mustache mug was designed like that as the Men used wax in their Mustache and the steam from the tea or the liquid would melt the wax, thus not only getting into the tea but ruining the look of the Mustache.
This is a marvelous bit of information! I knew this but never put two and two together - thank you! I just purchased a treasure trove of tea cups (peek on instagram for pictures posted today)! You will appreciate the variety.
Adorable!
Thank you!
Any advise where we can buy some of these tea cups?
Collecting tea cups requires a trained eye but if you know what you are looking for you can find them at estate sales, yard sales, thrift shops and antique stores. Another option is on eBay or Amazon. Please note…we custom curate TEA PARTY TO GO BOXES and can ship them to you with everything needed for a fancy tea party.
my god, how nice you are talking to children! 🥰
I love the pink & white tea cup at 4:28 that has a white tea cup on it
Ahh, she has the cutest little oink!! 🐷
Congratulation!!!!!!! I love IT
You are too kind, thank you!
Hello and I am so very glad I found you! I am binging and binging as I am learning so much. Thank you for educating me on the world of manners and self presentation. Also, on “bee” stuff. :)
I just found you too! I have an abundance, but not as much as you. Please make your videos longer. I promise they won't bore.

Fabulous video! So badly needed!
I’m telling you! Your videos are fabulous!
Etiquette is so desperately needed today- what a wonderful delivery format, just lovely💗
Thank you! As Ms. MP says, "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down." I prefer cake, baby Victoria, too!
O, Mrs. B, your walls look just like mine do! LOL!
Mrs. B. - we just "met" last night. Here's my delimma: I work as a cook and baker for the same 20 adult women in the morning and same 15 adult men in the evening. Every day. (Their "occupation" would surprise you by this:) but, after dinner, i usually never hear anyone say "thank you" - or - the 'chicken' was good. My family and friends tell me I am a good cook. I am hard-pressed to hear a thank you or a compliment from them. From the coffee to the last crumb of apple pie, no thank you. Your input is appreciated. Thank you!
Bless your heart! Bless your hands and all of the creativity it takes to do what you do! I am very glad to make your acquaintance. Maybe we need to book a private tea session for your cherished diners. A quick fix for now, embellish how you present the food. Spark their creativity with some of your own: -> I poured my heart into the meal today... -> There is a special secret ingredient in today's dish, please let me know if you can guess what it is... -> I am so grateful to be able to serve you and hope you are pleased with today's meal)... With children I often hold the item until they say, "thank you". Sometimes I will even proceed them by saying, "it was my pleasure to do this, this and this for you." More often than not, that will illicit a lovely, "thank you!"
@@TeawithMrsB I do appreciate your reply, Mrs, B, however, after 3 years at the one massively ungrateful place, I wouldn't waste another minute on their unappreciative useless attitudes "begging" for them to tell me what they like or telling them how I've labored over their dinner and dessert. These men see me as their servant and nothing else! When I come in to cook their dinner, I am greeted with a sinkful of dirty dishes and over-flowing garbage cans - from whence I was there a mere 24 hours prior! I have decided to leave my employ there where I found it......now they need a cook AND a maid!!! LOL@So happy to be free from there....(now I have to work on the morning group which they won't budge either) Arghhh!
@@oneitalia2312 Well, good for you. Action is a good thing. I hope you find something that suits you perfectly and energizes you even more than you already are! You deserve to be appreciated and thanked!
@@TeawithMrsB I knew I liked you ♡ Thank You!
OMG- "The fork flip"!!! You mean this 'style' actually has a name? LOL! I see people all the time eating this silly way. I think to myself, Why can't he/she eat with the hand the fork is in?" It's the most asinine way to eat. Who puts the knife down, changes hands with a fork-ful of meat, then puts the fork in the mouth? I cannot believe this is actually a style of eating. It's like, you can't walk and chew gum at the same time? Sorry, Mrs. B, but thanks!
Yes, I thought the same when I first saw it but upon further research found that the two distinct styles have an interesting history. It was the Americans who came up with the set style of dining. The Europeans then followed suit. The idea of the "fork flip" is that most people are right handed so cutting and eating with the right had was more comfortable. Time at the table was also about taking our time, relaxing. This is definitely a more time consuming way to eat and would hopefully afford diners to enjoy their meal a little more. Personally, I prefer the European style because it is best for children to learn to master how to use a fork and knife (as well as many adults). Thank you for tuning in!
@@TeawithMrsB .....and thank you, too, Mrs. B. I, too, prefer the European way. The other way is awkward. Love your channel! ~♡~
OK, I looked through your comments for an answer of how you got the wave of plates up there, with triangular picture hooks and various glues.. sooo lovely- sure adds to the overall charm, love it!
Let me know if you give it a go! It is tricky and certain glue adheres to plates while others do not. We used a variety - hot glue, super glue and gorilla glue.
First time Viewer here- Love the wave of plates !! please tell how you affixed the plates to the wall.
My entire home is FULL of second hand artifacts. I love and adore it all. However, I have absolutely NO MORE SPACE to put anything! So, I had to quit going to sales and it's killing me. I'm soooo sad, but I had to put a halt to it. All of that stuff that I'm missing.......... :-( ... :-( ... :-(
A collector's heart can never be tamed. It is not about the item so much as it is the hunt. I love the element of surprise in it all. We set out without a clue to what we will find but always find something. It's an optimistic way of living! Equally wonderful is sharing what you find. We share them with all of the guests who visit the tearoom. Children are the best recipients. They savor such treasures and delight in the story behind each one of them. Find a neighbor child and parent who you can invite over for a cup of hot or iced tea! Use your very best and enjoy serving them. And...if you want to take a page from my mother's book on life - I remember her actually taking a painting off the wall to give it to a friend who admired it. She later told me, as much as she loved it it is even more loved now for the act of being shared so generously. Try it out. Let me know how it goes! Hugs, Mrs. B
@@TeawithMrsB Thank you for the comment, Mrs. B - I understand fully what you are saying. I LOVE the hunt, too - i love going a day from sale to sale, bringing home my things and washing them, cleaning and polishing something, ironing a little doll dress.....but as I say, I have no more room. It saddens me. I don't think I'm selfish - maybe I am - but i don't want to give anything away! My family calls my home "The Museum" .... I love how you've displayed the beautiful plates on your wall - all whimsy ~♡~ I found a gorgeous, ornate silver serving spoon at an estate sale for $2 - looked it up in 2021 antique book - that very spoon is appraised at $1,500! Crazy stuff!!!
@@oneitalia2312 YOU are a treasure!

She looks like she has on pajamas.
FINALLY! Someone I can relate to! I am so tired of minimalist preaching!
Omg!!!! I just found you, too. I love the way you did the plates in a wave on the wall. More interesting that way. I'm so glad there are others who understand the difference between collecting and hoarding....... hahaha, omg. I love collecting and I'm not gonna stop. Thank you.
Thank you! I can tell we would be fast friends. What do you collect?
New subscriber I wish you do a video of those plate how you displayed in the wall?
We can do that! What would you like to know?

THANK YOU! Tory Burch - Ivory Contrast Binding Shirt 👚
I just found you and subbed to you. I love all your things from Wisconsin. Also the way the plates are so cute!😊
I am so glad to be friends!
Good ideas loved it
We need THIS taught in kindergarden...something that would benefit the world!! Not CRT
It would be a much nicer world if we all slowed down a bit and enjoyed tea together more often! Kinders love tea parties! We host a Toddler Tea once a month just for them.
You are gifted at arrainging and displaying...I'm envious. I have a hard enough time picking a new outfit- I have to study the mannequins!
@@TeawithMrsB thank you so much for responding! I appriciate all the thoughtful recommendations Mrs. Bee 🐝🐝
Do you use them for guest the tea sets I would that's going to a tea room using all the old things
These are just eye candy! We have even more that we use for our guests. So many options!!!
It always stuns me on how people don’t even know where their bread plate is.
Looks like a lot of fun at your adorable table.
