So today is reveal day for the teacup and mug exchange. The first two pictures are my exchanges for two other folks. One for a mug and one for a teacup.
You notice the same motif for the mug and teacup? Well, when we left Minnesota about 38 years ago, I purchased this set of mugs and cups but never used them. I decided that this was a perfect way to share them with others.
So, here's the first box I opened. I took pictures of each item as I unpacked the box...
That was so much fun. Here's the complete collection...
I simply love the mug with the leaf design. And the size is great for me because I love a large cuppa...and pralines (Oh, I am in heaven with those). And I can't wait to try out the coffee samples. I have never had this brand before and look forward to having a cup. And let me tell you, the weather is so cold again today that I think I will sample the chocolate first and wrap myself up with an electric throw (The heat is off in my apartment complex!) Thank you so much, Kathy. Watch for a letter of thanks...
And here's the second box...
Two boxes meant twice the fun. Here's the complete collection...
I've already sampled the chocolate...hmmm, good. And I can't wait to make the scones. I will even make some mock clotted cream. And I will drink the British tea. And those decorated eggs are just adorable as is the dainty teacup decorated with colorful flowers. I love the handmade soap and can't wait to use it. I am always looking for a notebook to carry with me and this one is not only the right size, it's my favorite color as well. Thank you very much, Janice. Watch for a letter of thanks from me.
Well, as you can see, I was truly showered with wonderful, thoughtful gifts in this exchange by both folks. And I am going to enjoy every single thing. Now I need to write some thank you notes.
Thanks for watching me reveal my exchanges...
Enjoy the rest of your day...
Talk with you tomorrow...
