Anyone for a "Spot of tea"?

Yesterday we went to visit Tom’s Aunt Mickey. First visit since Uncle Joe died. It was hard for Tom and Mickey to talk about Uncle Joe, but by the end of the visit, they were both smiling. I talked them into walking into town so I could visit the yarn shop. Yeah, I know, I’m selfish, but I wanted to get them out of the apartment and the yarn shop was just down the road.  Click here to see photos of the visit.

I got some nice yarn, including some silk and linen blend. Tom even carried the package. On the way back to the apartment, Tom and Mickey stopped to get some sandwiches. The shop was small, so I stayed outside and did a little window shopping. I spotted a tea pot and cups that just called my name. When Tom and Mickey caught up with me, I mentioned to Tom that I really liked the tea pot.

We went inside and I got the tea pot, two matching cups, a tea leaf filter, and some leaf tea. I haven’t used it yet. It’s almost too pretty to use. What do you think?
