| It's okay to say when and where on the forum since we are talking about the teacup swap. I don't think the other ladies will mind. |

Boy did I ever get spoiled by sweet Sherry! I opened a package that was just breathtaking! Sherry really must be a fly on the wall in my house, because everything in that box was just perfectly ME. I am so regretting my impatience at having to tear into everything before I took a photo of how lovely every gift was wrapped...beautiful tea stamped tissue paper, gorgeous ribbon, netting...just like a tea party should be.
Of course, there was a really beautiful vintage teacup and saucer white with little rosebuds and gold trim, very delicate and feminine....and made in Occupied Japan...I love that era of vintage:)
Then, an absolutely wonderful book called Vintage Cakes which my daughter promptly ripped out of my hand (she loves to bake)...hey and I now know that German Chocolate Cake is not from Germany...LOL. There was a box of assorted teas from my favorite Harney & Sons...yummy, a box of iced black tea (I drink it all day long), yummy cookies which are now half gone, Werthers caramels (must be hidden soon) and homemade blackberry jelly....it is soooo good. Then, I got two beautiful tea towels...one vintage and one so whimsical...love them both. A teatime magazine...love the recipes in there, some really cool post-its for cookbooks which are perfect for me because I NEVER remember where to find recipes that I have wanted to try....and then...OMG...the Chichuahua mug...I about died when I saw it (just like my Ruby ummm 10 years ago)....it is precious.
AND...the finale....the most most adorable teabag lavender sachets Sherry made for me. As you can see in the photo, they are priceless...just like little teabags! Sherry is sooo clever and talented.
They truly are just the cutest things I've ever seen!
I also got to have a lovely phone conversation with Sherry yesterday so I could thank her "in person"...but Sherry, thank you again from the bottom of my grateful heart for a wonderful swap!
Hugs, Tammy

Amber,
If another time is better for you......let me know. I'm pretty open towards end of the month etc. With some health things going on (see my Dr tomorrow)
I'm unable to spend lengths of time sitting long so no worries with time :)
Whatever works out will be great! Look forward to meet you and family!
Hugs,

| No I will be downtown already, it will do me a little good to sneak away from the wackiness that is Anime Fest. If you'd like to meetup for lunch sometime so we can get to know one another better that would be great. I am a big fan of Lotus Leaf. |

Tammy I received my package yesterday and were to begin. Thank you so much everything is just wonderful, love it all. The tea cup is beautiful, girls it from the Royal Albert Rose Chintz Series (Yellow Ribbon). Love the hand towel, I will have to try the recipe that is on it. Lavender Scones. Can't wait to try the cinnamon buns, I know they will be great. And did you'll see the paper bag book that Tammy made for me. All themed with tea cup paper. I was so excited when I saw the Daphine's Diary Magazine and the A Proper Tea Book never seen anything like it before. Also got some great smelling soap, a teapot cookie cutter, some great new tea to try and love me some Peets coffee. Tammy thank you so much for the wonderful teacup swap package. I am going to enjoy.  |

Sherry, Tammy sure sent you a lovely "Tea Swap" package :)! Her handmade books are treasures, I know I treasure mine! Love the tea cup and saucer, you don't see many yellow ones (or at least I haven't in my travels). You will enjoy Daphny's Dairy so much! Great magazine. I know you are enjoying all your sweet gifts!

I did it and don't remember how but here is what my sweet Teacup swap sister Marlene sent to me. I love everything she sent to me and the cookies are half gone and were they delicious.
I love the tea, the tee towel, and the tea cup is so pretty with a delicate pattern on the cup and saucer, and the prettiest turquoise napkins and pretty flowers in black and white and a really neat pen from New Orleans, Mardi gras.and oh yes the Woman's World Magazine, I like reading those.
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much Marlene. I love it.
