  2. I wonder if this was an heirloom brought over in a suitcase years ago or an everyday import sold at the usual stores? It is beautiful either way!

    1. Nice cup indeed. Of course, being a guy I need a big one with a large handle so I don't spill.... according to my wife...:)

  16. Carla, your new blue tea cup is lovely. You know, blue tea cups are the prettiest to me. My wedding china was even in blue. There's just something about blue. The campfire with your boys sounds wonderful. Thank you for the gentle reminder to be grateful always.
