Day 1, It's the New Year ! I hope yours is blessed with health and happiness!
It's also National Hot Tea Month. I'm celebrating by
trying a different tea in a different tea cup each day!
This is English Tea Shop white tea, in my Homer Laughlin Dogwood teacup.
I am also sharing tea stories, quotes, history, etiquette, and much more on my
vintagey page, Vintage Treasures by Grandmalay, on facebook
Day 2 I have a pretty Christmas tree mug by Johnson Bros.
My dear friend gave me the red teakettle, and I'm drinking
Bigelow Constant Comment tea flavored with orange rind and spices!
Mother says"It will warm the cockles of your heart! "
Day 3 I am visiting a dear friend, Sandee. We have the best talks, nicest lunches
at her house and often a cuppa tea. Today I chose Twinings Earl Grey
. (Click on Earl Grey, to find out what it is exactly)

accomplishment and new career! I have more stories about Navy stuff here:
Scroll down and look at this Navy china and silver.
My friend is deceased now, and this very special collection, has been dispersed

like this.You'll probably never see such a remarkable assemblage of Navy ship's items.
