TeaCup Tuesday
I’ve been away way too long. There are at least a hundred reasons why I haven’t posted. And none seem to matter now. I have peeked in on all of my favorite blogs from time to time, like Martha’s and Terri’s, and have oooed and ahhhed over many beautiful tea cups, but I haven’t shared […]
Tiny Treasures
Would you care for a tiny spot of tea? That’s all we’ll get out of these minis. I think they are adorably cute! The blue set was a gift from some dear friends that had visited China. It is so small and cute, I got all giddy over its cuteness. Now my dear husband, who is not to […]
My first cup
A long time ago my husband and I shared our first Christmas together in the upstairs apartment of an old house on Pikes Peak and 18th on this city’s west side. I had wanted china set for Christmas, but knew we could not afford it. My dear sweet husband thought we could and bought me a box […]

It’s hasn’t been an easy find for me. So far I have two red, two brown and one dark brown (almost black) tea cups and saucers. […]
Two Teacups for Teacup Tuesday!
These beautiful teacups came all the way from the Czech Republic just for me! Really! A few years ago my Pastor went on a missions trip to the Czech. He has gone many times, as there are churches there that are a part of our fellowship. There is a Revival happening over there among the […]
Teacup Tuesday
This is my first Teacup Tuesday and I hope you enjoy my cup ~ I went to see a dear friend of mine in Cherryvale, Kansas this summer. She took me to a couple of antique shops in Coffeyville and I found this cup at one of them. It was another “love at first sight” […]
Letter Ladies Tea
My August tea party for the “letter ladies” was a success. 11 ladies attended and almost all wore hats. Not all of the hats were traditional tea party hats, but hats none the less! It was the spirit behind the hats the mattered. I just loved Rachel’s cowboy hat – she put a flower in […]
