Teatime Tuesday

My dear friend Kelly from Cozy Comforts used to host a Teatime Tuesday which was very fun to participate in every week.  She has become very busy and isn't hosting anymore so I thought I would start it back up!  I discovered that there are a few Teatime Tuesday parties with link ups, so I won't be doing that.  I will link up with those and encourage you to do it too!


I am showing a photo taken early this rainy morning with my terrible point and shoot camera.  These are my Spode "Blue Room" teacups that I bought at a yard sale last year for a total of $2.00!  Yes, all four for $2.00!

Now on this rainy first day of Summer, I will go brew a pot of Yorkshire Gold and have a cuppa.

I hope you have a delightful day!


I am joining Sandi for Tea Time Tuesday at Rose Chintz Cottage, and Lady Katherine for her Tea Time Tuesday!

I am also joining Trish for L.A.C.E at Lily-Rose Cottage.

Love your teacups! I think they were well worth the $2.00 spent! Thanks for sharing them!

Oh yardsales, how I love your siren call of deals, and how I love it more when they pay off and it's not three old TVs and a pile of stuffed animals!

great deal on those cups/saucers, missy! they look lovely against the yellow wall. hm. i keep typing Hellow wall...but it *is* welcoming and perhaps you should begin referring to the wall as a Hello(w) wall. ah, but i digress...

would love to see a larger pic of the item you're hanging the cups from..so as i can see if it'll fit in my car. ha!

as to your comment on my blog... sitting together and sharing hearts:
oh yes, i'd love that. so much.

hugs,

Your teacups were a great find! I love blue and white. Well done! Happy Tea Day!

Only $2 for all those teacups is a real steal of a deal. I love it when I find something special at a garage sale.

Very pretty teacups against your yellow walls. Happy Summer!

Kelly said...

You go, Mrs. Rabe! How fun! I'm sure you'll do a much better job at Teatime Tuesdays than I. I think you have more tea knowledge and creativity. I will enjoy visiting your Teatime Tuesdays.

Gorgeous teacups! Two dollars for four Spode teacups is a real steal and how pretty they look hanging on the shelf. Thank you so much for sharing your post with Tea Time and have a delightful week.

$2.00? What a great deal!!! My camera is a point and shoot too. I'm looking for a new one, but not sure what I want yet :)
I love a good cup of tea too!
Blessings,

Hi Mrs.Rabe,
Love your tea cups/saucers. I have never seen a rack like the one you have them displayed on. What a clever idea!
Happy tea time
God Bless
