It’s Always Teatime on Teapot Tuesday

8 Comments/ 2732/ 0

Teatime is anytime in my house and this little Pier 1 teapot that I found on clearance for a whopping $4.99 was just the teapot to snatch up and add to my collection.  I love the simple look and for some reason it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.  Can’t you just see this on the Mad Hatter’s tea table?teapot3

The Dormouse had closed its eyes by this time, and was going off into a doze; but, on being pinched by the Hatter, it woke up again with a little shriek, and went on: `–that begins with an M, such as mouse-traps, and the moon, and memory, and muchness– you know you say things are “much of a muchness”–did you ever see such a thing as a drawing of a muchness?’

`Really, now you ask me,’ said Alice, very much confused, `I don’t think–‘

`Then you shouldn’t talk,’ said the Hatter.

This piece of rudeness was more than Alice could bear: she got up in great disgust, and walked off; the Dormouse fell asleep instantly, and neither of the others took the least notice of her going, though she looked back once or twice, half hoping that they would call after her: the last time she saw them, they were trying to put the Dormouse into the teapot.

`At any rate I’ll never go THERE again!’ said Alice as she picked her way through the wood. `It’s the stupidest tea-party I ever was at in all my life!’

    Yes, this teapot would be perfect at the Mad Hatter´s Tea Party! I have a new favourite summer drink, it is an iced pina colada tea. It is served at one of our favourite coffee shops overlooking the beach and I love it! So refreshing (no alcohol in it)

      What? That sounds amazing! Iced pina colada tea would be so refreshing in the summertime. I am going to have to do some research on that .
