It’s a Little Fishy on Teapot Tuesday

23 Comments/ 3181/ 1

This week’s teapot was a Christmas gift from our youngest son, Aaron. I absolutely love it! It is whimsical and adorable, colorful and detailed, unique and sturdy all wrapped into one teapot. It will be one of my favorites not only because of the looks but because it was hand picked for me by him. Merry Christmas to me!

I was happy to see your blog show up on my WordPress feed! Such a cheerful teapot. Makes me think of warm waters … definitely not in Illinois.

Yay–it’s back! We have been trying to figure out why that did not migrate. Good to know that it is back. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by. Yes—I am sure Illinois is not warm right now either. Brrr. We are at minus 9 today.

Now that teapot denotes the epitome of the term ‘fish-faced.’ Your son did a great job picking that one out!
