A couple of months ago, I found 3 gorgeous Aysnley teacups at a church rummage sale.

I love the teacups' elegant sage green colour and gold filigree design which blend together beautifully!

Teas for Canada Day

When my brother came home for a brief visit, he brought some new teas from a Canadian-owned tea shop, Totalitea, that will be perfect for celebrating Canada Day (July 1).

 

Totalitea #1: Chinook Breeze green tea had blue pea flowers that made the tea looked blue.

 

 
Totalitea #2: Rocky Mountain Herbs herbal tea
 
 
Totalitea #3: Nanaimo Bar black tea was enjoyed with a cookie inspired by the same Canadian dessert!

First cold-brewed tea of the summer!

Did you know that June is National Iced Tea Month?

 

 
On the first day of summer, I enjoyed this tasty cold-brewed Raspberry Lemon Verbena herbal tea.
 

This cold-brewed Cactus Rose green tea was another refreshing summer beverage.

I'll definitely be drinking lots of cold-brewed teas to stay in cool this heat wave!

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.
