It's time for tea.
This lovely set was a gift at Christmas --
teapot, teacup, luncheon plate.
Called Watercolour Floral Afternoon Tea Set.
The teapot holds 6 cups of delicious tea.
The whole set is quickly becoming a favorite.
I love blue and white.

"When making a great pot of tea, pour hot water into the teapot to warm it
while the kettle of water is heating."
"My dear, if you could give me a cup of tea to clear my muddle of a head
I should better understand your affairs."
~ Charles Dickens
"Iced tea was invented at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair
by an expatriate Englishman named Richard Blechynden.
His hot tea wasn't selling so he poured it over ice and had an instant success."
(From 365 Things Every Tea Lover Should Know)
Thank you to our tea party hosts:

Looks lovely. I can see why it's becoming your favorite.
What a beautiful tea set! I love the blue and white, too. And thanks for the fun fact about iced tea--I didn't know that! Here in the south, it's all about the iced tea. :-)
How pretty, something so crisp about blue and white and those jonquils, that peachy hue, yum. xox
Good Evening Snap, What a pretty name for your tea set... Watercolour Floral. I love blue and white as well.
My mother, my mother in law and my Grandmother always put the hot water into the teapot first, to warm the pot.
I hope you had your feet up went you enjoyed your cup of tea.
Best Wishes
