My birthday was last week, and I was actually happy to hit year number sixty-two because a) it beats the alternative b) I prefer even numbers (I'm weird that way) and c) lots of senior discounts are available at this age. If there's a free something for seniors, count me in. I was also treated to a nice Indian lunch and a visit to a botanical garden by two friends, others sent lovely cards, and my friend Kathy surprised me with these teapot earrings she found on Etsy. They are absolutely the prettiest ones I've ever seen, and I can't wait to wear them the next time I go to a tearoom!
My friend Margie in California surprised me with this whimsical pop-up card that now has a spot on my tea trolley (really just a small table with wheels). I'd seen these cards advertised on television but had never realized how elaborate they are, especially this one with all the charming hummingbirds!
My friend Tammy has started making her own T-shirts, and she made me two new pink ones, including one with a teapot on it.
And a friend in Arizona, Frances, made my day by sending this gorgeous Shelley teacup with *turquoise* polka dots on it. I'm sure grateful for the thoughtfulness of my friends!
What lovely gifts! I am especially impressed with the earrings and the T-shirt (tea-shirt?) with your name on it. You need to go to Tea often to wear these goodies.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Angela. Enjoy your lovely gifts!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely gifts. I'm glad you had a happy birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday Angela 🙏. I always thought odd numbers sounded thinner and younger but that's my neurosis ☺️
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had such a nice birthday! Those teapot earrings are so cute, and I love the card with the hummingbirds, too.
