I am blessed with so many friends.  I really am.  Recently I made a new friend who gifted me with a beautiful teapot.

We had spent the weekend at The Biltmore for a company event and I got to entertain the spouses while the “guys” had leadership meetings.  A few of us had never met but the amazing thing was that we all clicked like we were old friends.  I love when that happens.

One of the ladies found out about my love of teapots and as a thank you gifted me this adorable set that she found in one of the many shops at The Biltmore.  I loved the details on the flowers which I think might be lavender on the teapot.  They are delicate and detailed.Of course it is fun when you can use the cup that is a part of the set and enjoy the perfect cup of tea brewed and poured from the one cup teapot.

I absolutely love the teapot that Sheri gifted me and I am looking forward to more time with these ladies in the future.  We really did forge some friendships and that always is a good thing.

I’m an afternoon tea type of girl. I come from a Russian background where we love our teas. So between lunch and dinner after training I come home and I love a nice cup of tea with jam in it, as we drink it there. Black English Breakfast tea with raspberry jam is my favorite. – Maria Sharapova, professional tennis player
