Why it's Otis again.
Is there anything so beautiful as a cat? Well....if you happen to be a dishaholic like myself you might think this tea-cup could be a runner-up.
Since I sometimes like to have tea on the front porch with Sierra I photographed this pretty cup in the light of day.
TEA today is ...
Rooibos Herbal Chai
This tea is almost red in colour when steeped for 5 minutes.
It is spectacular. Why the gold spoon? Because I always add a bit of honey to my tea. That way my sweet tooth is satisfied, too. I recommend this tea highly.
My cats are having a bang-up time with something I placed in the hall for them.
I'll show you tomorrow.
I'm joining Sandi at http://sandimyyellowdoor.blogspot.ca/ for Tea-time Tuesday.
hugs, Deb

Good Morning. I adore this tea cup. I just checked and both ebay and replacements.com have some of the pattern available. The creamer in this pattern is gorgeous, too.
ReplyDeleteAs always, I love your photos and hope you have a nice day.
Thanks for the info about the tea!
The cup is very beautiful and I will keep my eye out for a matching one while out and about.. Hugs GJ xx
ReplyDeleteYou do have the loveliest cups. I'll hunt for one like this!
ReplyDeleteA very elegant teacup.
ReplyDeleteAnd a very sleepy looking Otis.
The handle of that teacup is exquisite. Such detail on a handle just adds toward making the teacup so pretty. I can see why it would be your teacup of choice.
ReplyDeleteOtis seems to be annoyed in this picture, did you disturb his nap ?
Your teacup is beautiful! All those tiny flowers! I share your love of cats and teacups! Aren't cats the smartest animals? How wonderful your work is what you love best!
