I received this in the mail from the lovely Lisa Oceandreamer. I won this when she had a birthday giveaway. Its beautiful, makes me think of my mom today. She had some of these china cups and saucers but I never received any of them. I collect tea pots and have wanted to start getting some beautiful cups and saucers. I previously had only 2 and now with this third one I will soon have enough to have a tea party. Its extra special that its come from Lisa. I know that she was close to her mom and that when I use this cup I will think of her and her mom and mine too. What a pleasant memory that will be. Thanks Lisa.
We haven't been snowed in but I did get stuck in the driveway after the snowplow dumped tons of snow there. Today I chose to stay home. Domestic goddess, thats me. I baked 2 pumpkin and 2 apple pies, cleaned the house, did laundry, finished up the last Christmas gift and got it wrapped. Maybe now I should get dressed. Right now I am listening to my favorite Christmas song by Trans Siberian Orchestra. Christmas Eve Sarajevo, its all instrumental and is a mixture of tunes including Carol of the Bells. I have it on repeat, I won't say how many times I have heard it today. Sarah loves it too so neither of us complain about it.
I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Eve....

It is a lovely gift. I have cups that were mom's and some that were grandma's and some that were my mother in laws. I guess it's a tradition or way of life no longer lived much. But I like having mine.
Enjoy your tea party.
So pretty! That is Michael's favorite Christmas song, too. I hope your day was perfect.
I hope you had a most blessed and peaceful Christmas. Love that gift from Lisa. I have a collection of English bone china cups and saucers and just love to look at them.
Hey, Kate. What a lovely gift from Lisa! Sounds like you had a very nice Christmas Eve!
Raf gave me a loom for Christmas with lessons!! Take a look on my blog.

Rose teacups are my favorite! I know you will have a lovely tea party! I learned how to needle felt today! It is so simple, but fun!
