I really enjoyed seeing your gift for each giveaway. You amaze me with the the great tea things and pretties that you find. Thank you for your generous spirit.<br />Oooh, I was at the Cracker Barrel today and they had gotten in some sweet, decorative teapot pillows that I hadn't seen before...so cute. One style was short & round and the other tall. I bought the round one.<br />It's about salad plate size size...bright colors with the teapot handle to hang from, a tea bag hanging on the side that says Fresh Brewed and the pot says, "It's Always Tea Time -somewhere" and $4.99. My fuzzy brain can't remember what the tall one said but it was just as cute and pretty :)<br /><br />I have kept a garden journal for ten years. I've been so glad lately because I have such a poor memory.<br />Happy Valentine's to all!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561411966841447308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-37582536645394370002011-02-11T15:39:12.889-05:002011-02-11T15:39:12.889-05:00I keep a journal of quilts I have made and one of ...I keep a journal of quilts I have made and one of the canning I do each year.
