My 1st Tea Time Tuesday!

Hi Friends!

I am joining my sweet friend

Sandi

for

TEA TIME Tuesdays!

Since I LOVE anything to do with

tea, tea cups, teapots

I thought it would be fun

to showcase some of my

special goodies.

This tea set is very dear to me.  When my mom and

dad visited The Enlish Isles many years ago I she picked this set

out for me.  It is OLDE Chintz by Sadler, Fine Bone

China, Made in England.

This came all the way from England to my home.

Now the teapot is not a big one, holds maybe

3-4 cups of water...but I am a Chintz girl

and blue girl too...and this one is sooo me.

It takes residence front and center in my hutch

display in our Royal Blue Dining Room.

When something has the thought of another

behind it, this sentimental gal gets

real sappy over it.

But I am reminded in my Love of *pretty things*

not to get myself too caught up in the getting but

more in the enjoying each treasured day I am given.

The verses below keeps me ever mindful of this...

 Matthew 6:19,20

Do Not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth,

where moth and rust destroy

and

where thieves break in and steal,

but,

 lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,

where neither moth nor rust destroys

and where thieves do not break in and steal.

Reminder that these are just things and I mustn't

obsess on these treasures,

enjoy them for the season they have

been given...

and

be thankful for what GOD

has given me each day.

Thanks so much for joining with me...
