I finally made it back to Tea Tuesday! It's been weeks, but all I can say is sometimes I get it together, sometimes I don't! Anyway, I just had to show off this cute tiny tea cup and saucer that my good friend Karen, from Thread Therapy sent to me......it's a beauty! Karen makes wonderful fiber art goodies, and also has some incredible vintage items in her reconditioned shop. As I sipped from this cup it took me to another place, of prettiness, and daintiness, and a place where niceness is important and to take time to enjoy some simple moments. It seems I forget to do this rather frequently.Take a wander over to Kimmie's Art in Red Wagon's and visit all the Tea Tuesday takers, and their great blogs! Oh yes, the tea here, not really certain, it seemed a bit flowery. I tried to translate it but didn't get much out of that. Sweet Delila from Robin and the Sage sent me the tea from Finland! Delila has a beautiful blog filled with woodland wonder ....you will be amazed.I am trying to expand my horizons!
Thanks for visiting....and your sweet comments!

I used to drink tea, in an earlier life - I remember the steaming fragrance and early mornings...
What a sweet cup!
Wishing you a most wonderful day!
Hi Sharon, I've been following your blog for more than two years now and usually visit daily. I find your work inspiring. Keep it up.
This is such a great site! I like the way you set this up! Great content! Thanks for sharing this!...Daniel
Hello Sharon,
that is the most sweet little cup- I love the pleated saucer and the motives- and I`m sure Delilas tea was something healphy .
Oh -you know I can`t accomplishe all I want eighter..
This spring I took part in two workshops /classes on the computer,-and I hardly made any of the projects--no time :)
Thank you for taking me to Dekila again- her blog is a lovely place.
I hope your day, will be a good one, my dear.

Ya' know...I started drinking tea years ago and then slowly gave in to coffee! I'm a coffee addict now, even though I said it would never happen to me! Thanks for your comments on my blog, your encouragement means the world to me. Have a great day! ;)
Glad you could make it - love the teacup!! My friend (see today's tea blog) is going to Finland soon - land of my ancestors! I will have to request some of this tea!!:>)
Hi Sharon. I'm so glad you are enjoying the cup. Thank you for this lovely blog post. Have a good day my friend.
Ooh, I love the photos. I'm trying to drink more hot tea as opposed to my afternoon coffee. :)
Hi Sharon, i think tea always taste better in a pretty little tea cup/ a saucer of course. i have one that my baba gave me and i take it out of the china cabinet on her bday and have my special cup of tea with her (in spirit) ttfn L:)
Pretty little tea cups like yours make tea day even more special. I seem to be a mug type woman, but I do love the tea cups and saucers. Only have a few of those and love them all. Happy tea day.
well, happy tea day, so nice to have tea with you! and so pretty and flowery you say? sounds very interesting... I will check out the link, enjoy!
It's good that you are back sharing tea with us today, even if you can't make it every week. I am in awe of that beautiful cup and saucer. The cup is almost too pretty to drink from. Happy Tea today.
What a lovely cup! Hugs from a coffee-girl:-)

What a delight your teacup and saucer are! Tea tastes better if the cup is daintier and prettier... I don't know why or how... it just does!! Thank you for tea, now I must have a nose about in your blog as I spy all sorts of pretties!!
Oh, I love your tea set. It reminds me of high tea with the ladies. And I'm definitely popping by at Delia's blog. Thank you for the cup of tea.
Based on the color of the bag I would guess it's
Blueberry Muffin
Ingredients: White tea, blueberry muffin flavouring.
Hugs, Gunilla

You have inspired me to take the time to use one of my own pretty teacups .... More often than I do. You are so right about enjoying the loveliness of the moment! Your cup is gorgeous! It photographs nicely too! A photogenic teacup!

I never drank tea until I came to the Middle East. I still have my two cups of morning coffee. Turkish coffee around 10 am. But the rest of the day, it is green tea. Your jewelry is gorgeous -- especially the torn fabric pieces. Beautiful! I haven't had much time to slow down this week but next week is our Spring Break. woo hoo! Have a wonderful Wednesday. Tammy
what a cup OMG !! what a cup!! lovely!
Such a beautiful little cup and saucer. You need to take more time out girl!!!

It's no wonder your sweet cup filled with tea took you to another place. That's something I love about teacups and tea...both transform the moment. oxo
What a lovely post, Sharon, I enjoyed it so much!!! Even though I'm drinking tea everyday, it's true I don't take often the time to surround myself with that prettiness and loveliness that you are talking about and I realise that's such a pity! It seems that we forget how to relax and enjoy the little things in life...
The teacup is a beauty!!!:)
Lots of love,
Sanda xoxo
I love a good cup of hot tea! I'm pretty sure that comes from my early years of eating chinese food quite often. I adore the Oolong tea they served!
