Another Miniature Teapot on Teapot Tuesday

33 Comments/ 4232/ 2

Today is another in my miniature teapot series.  These teapots from Avon are very small and definitely not functional as the warning on the bottom of each warns against using them for food purposes.  I think this asparagus one is my favorite in the vegetable series because it just is unique and maybe also because I love asparagus.  Whatever the reason—I love this little guy and think he will be around for a long time even if I can’t brew a cup of tea in him. Asparagus Teapot on It's Just Life

“As far as her mom was concerned, tea fixed everything. Have a cold? Have some tea. Broken bones? There’s a tea for that too. Somewhere in her mother’s pantry, Laurel suspected, was a box of tea that said, ‘In case of Armageddon, steep three to five minutes’.” – Aprilynne Pike

      Thanks, Carl! I have a friend who collects salt and peppers as well and they are as varied as teapots! Great collection to have and smaller! 🙂

    I love asparagus, too. Randy and I were just talking about Avon last week. Are there still “Avon Ladies?”

      There are still Avon ladies but I think most of their sales are probably online now instead of door to door. No one has time for door to door sales folks anymore, do they?

    Another cute one. And asparagus? Yum. Grilled with olive oil and a little parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.

      I don’t use the parmesan cheese but just grill it—how come it took us this long to figure out we could do that? All the rage now but years ago who knew?

    I wonder if you’d be so enamored with it if it were ‘carrots’ instead of asparagus.

    I love it! I also love asparagus! I love the colors on this one though! Green & purple happen to be one of my favorite color combos!

      I never really thought that green and purple went together but I am a believer now—-I see so many great designs with those two colors featured and it works! I love asparagus any way I can get it but grilled or roasted tops the list. Yum.
