Happy things

"Come, let us have some tea and continue to talk about happy things."
Chaim Potok,The Chosen












I received this stout teapot from Witt as a Christmas gift. I certainly have enjoyed putting it to use almost every afternoon when my energies web and I need a little pick-me-up both mentally and physically. Rose and Charlotte will hurriedly finish up any leftover matters (such as schoolwork and chores) and we sit down to a pot of hot tea, of course, we talk about happy things!












Don't you just love the peekings of these flowers over the rim of the teacup?
