Teri and the Tea Caddy

"On Mother's Day, I went to Hatley Park Castle with my mom, my kids and my buddy Debbie. We had a high tea of sandwiches, fruit and sweets - and of course there was too much to eat at one sitting.

But what to do?

None of us had thought to bring anything to carry the excess home in... but when I searched my bag, there was my handy-dandy Tilley Hat. We lined it with napkins and loaded in the goodies. It was a great container - Tilley Hats are good for many things!

Later, after the goodies were stored in the car, the hat did second duty as a much needed sun-hat.

Teri, Nicholas and Maggie."
