I went by Trader Joe's early Sunday morning.
I knew I could depend on Joe for fresh flowers -- especially tulips.
I am a happy camper!
This little teacup looks mighty fine (as my Granny would have said).
She's a sweet little gem for a Valentine Tea.
I found it at the thrift shop on my last visit -- many months ago.
It is the only hand-painted teacup that I have.
Lovely, isn't she?!
She has some wear, but that means she's been loved.
There is no artist signature.
In very small letters on the teacup it says:
April
Sweet Pea
I'm joining some tea parties today:
Wishing you well, much joy and a lovely cup of tea!

Flowers and hand painted treasures, sounds like a perfect Sunday to me. xox
What a gorgeous little tea cup! Part of a "flower of the month" set, perhaps? I love sweet peas!
What a pretty teacup find! It is so lovely. Have a wonderful week!
What a sweet tea cup on its dainty pedestal. And beautiful tulips. It is TIME for fresh flowers to start appearing!
This is such a beautiful teacup and saucer, Snap! The fact that it is handpainted makes it all the more special.
So glad you have a mighty fine teacup and saucer! The hand painting makes it a treasure. Your pretty black teacup with the heart in the header is lovely for Valentine's Day, too! Have a great 14th!

That is a beautiful teacup! I love the fragile handle--so elegant! And love those tulips--it's good to see some sign of spring to come. :-)
I should be ashamed to admit that I just made my tea with a bag in a big Tim Hortons mug. Your cup is lovely and I do love tulips.

LOVE seeing those tulips!
Tulip and Tea Cup pretties indeed!
You found a nice colour of tulips for a bouquet on your table and the teacup is quite ornate - what a fancy handle!
I hope you have a 'special to you' day later this week Snap.
