We've moved to a delightful neighborhood recently, and one of its most endearing features is a cafe, called Crumpets, which serves luscious homemade English treats like scones and crumpets (hence the name, of course). Even better, pets are welcome (more like encouraged) as the owner, Junko, loves animals and her own pet Dachsund Yuzu is always to be found there. She and Rosie are friends, of a sort, and the idea of painting the two of them taking tea there appealed to me. The caption says,Yuzu has invited her ferret friend Rosie, to
join her at Crumpets for tea. "I've been so busy lately!"
says Rosie. "Two or three naps a day leaves so little time
for friends!"
