The Garage Sale Mystery movies


When I visited my friend Kathy down in Statesboro last month, she and her husband, John, were in the habit of projecting movies onto a large screen poolside at their home, and that was definitely a habit I could get into, if I had a pool. Because I so enjoyed watching these movies with my friends, I promptly came home and subscribed to Hallmark mysteries, and I just finished watching all of the Garage Sale mysteries. The movies starred Lori Loughlin and aired from 2013-2020.

I subscribed via my Amazon Prime account, which was super easy to do, and it's only $5.99 a month, which is pretty thrifty entertainment, if you ask me.

I spotted tea wares in quite a few of the movies, and a couple of times, the characters referred to a teapot that came "with service." Any idea what that means? I'm assuming it refers to the sugar and creamer (and maybe other pieces), but I was surprised that this was a term I've not come across before in relation to tea wares. Have you? Or maybe it's a regional thing? At any rate, I thoroughly enjoyed these movies and will probably watch them again, as I like to watch reruns when I'm working on needlework so that I don't have to pay that close attention. Are you a fan of these or any other Hallmark movies?

  2. No, I've never heard of a "teapot with service." "Tea service" or "tea set" is what I usually have seen, and that normally means the matching teapot, creamer, sugar bowl, cups and saucers, and individual small cake plates.
    I've never seen a Hallmark movie, since I don't watch much TV, but one of my sisters likes them, especially the Christmas ones. I'm glad you've found a new series that you like!
