A Royal Albert OCR teapot ornament

This week I'm sharing another treasure that I found at a church rummage sale recently.

 

 

This Royal Albert Old Country Roses teapot ornament was only $5!

 

 

I can't wait to hang this beauty on my tea-themed Christmas tree this year!

A black and gold Paragold teacup

This week, I'm sharing a vintage Paragon teacup that I recently purchased at a church "Teas and Treasures" sale for only $3!

 

 

The elegant gold and black design caught my eye.

 

 

I have a weakness for teacups that are decorated inside.

London Fog Ice Cream

As we move into summer weather, I keep an eye out for tea-inspired ice cream.

 

I love the creamy London Fog ice cream by President's Choice, a Canadian brand sold at Loblaws grocery stores. It tasted just like a creamy Earl Grey!

Tea-themed garden decor

A few weeks ago, a friend gifted me a metal garden sign from Dollarama.

 

 

 

A charming cat sitting in a teacup!

 

  

At a thrift store recently, I spotted these whimsical garden decor which repurposed old teacups and dishes.

 Do you have any tea-related garden decor?

Dessert by Deb's Oh Canada Sweets Collection

This month, I've been enjoying some new teas from Dessert by Deb's Oh Canada Sweets Collection.

 

 

Tea #1: Prairie Vanilla Custard Flapper Pie black tea

 

I've never actually had prairie vanilla custard flapper pie, but I enjoyed this tasty blend's creamy flavour.

  

 

Tea #2: Nanaimo Bar Cheesecake black tea

 

Another delicious creamy tea with chocolate and coconut notes.

 

 

 Tea #3: Maple Dipped Donuts & Coffee black tea

 

I'm not usually a fan of coffee-flavoured teas, but this was a lovely tea with a balance of maple and mocha notes.

 

 

Tea #4: Wild Strawberries & Northern Lights green tea

 

This fruity green tea would make a refreshing iced tea!

 

 

Tea #5: Sakura Watermelon in High Park oolong tea

 

I've never met a watermelon tea that I didn't like, so this floral watermelon blend was right up my alley!

2nd Annual Milton Tea Fest

 A few weeks ago, I attended the 2nd Annual Milton Tea Fest.

 

 

I admired the lovely tea-themed artwork.

 

 

It was quite busy, so I only took pictures of some of the vendors.

 

 

My modest tea haul!
