Teapot Tuesday has become quite a thing here on It’s Just Life and I can say that many people associate me with teapots.
Go figure.
I can’t tell you how many times I get “tagged” on Facebook or Instagram in pictures of teapots or teapot themed items. I love it. I guess it is better than my other occupation which seems to be Crazy Cat Lady.
So when friends see things and actually buy them for me because of my obsession collection I get excited.
Today I am featuring a couple of those gifts.
First up my Mooresville friends Ann and Judy went to an estate sale and found these cute little ornaments for me. I adore the blue and white colors and since I have several other teapot ornaments I need to just dig them out and put together a teapot themed tree, don’t you think?
The only problem is where to put it. Hmmm. Space is at a premium in our house and while I am desperately trying to declutter putting a tree up of some sort seems to be going against that decluttering mode. But trust me – if I do it you will see it here.
My second gift came from none other than my author friend Jena C. Henry . I wrote about our meet up last year at Lakeside and our shared love of all things Lakeside, books and Ohio. I also featured her in my Noteworthy Women series. You can read that post here.
We met up again at Lakeside this year and she brought me gifts. The perfect tea and jelly combo that I had stuck aside and am looking forward to devouring opening this week. Aren’t they just perfect and isn’t she just the best?
So thanks to friends who keep the gifts coming, the tea flowing and the collection growing. Y’all are the best and I am always happy to be tagged in pictures of teapots or all things tea related so keep em coming.

Leave a commentIt’s very obvious how well loved you are! That was interesting to read about how tea is enjoyed around the world.
I have the best friends! Including you! The tea video was fun, isn’t it?
It’s so great that people think of you when they see something like this and then get it.
I’ve told you once or twice before that I always think of you when it comes to tea and teapots! 🙂
I love it that teapots make people think of me! I love to get pictures of fun ones that folks find in their travels and it makes my day to see those pics as well.
So cool for me to see the Lake Erie teas and jam. Clearly, it has been far too long since I have been up there. My go-to tea is usually red tea, though it lacks the caffeine kick. And yes, you are extremely well loved!!! What a wonderful gift you are to others as well.
What wonderful gifts from awesome friends. You are truly blessed. I enjoyed the teas from around the world video too.
I am so blessed indeed. The tea video was fun, wasn’t it? I learned some things from watching it.
Tea-rrific! Oh my goodness, those little ornaments are just way too cute.
Aren’t they adorable? I love them!
What a precious little tea set. What a joy it is to get surprise gifts too.
I agree. I am so blessed with so many wonderful friends.
