  7. We do drink tea, usually around 4:00 pm. I tolerate it rather than enjoy it. We have a whole collection of dainty china cups and saucers, but they are never used. They are never even handled except to be washed a couple of times a year and set back on the shelf to begin the accumulation of dust again so that we can repeat the cycle. So far, attempts to give them away have been staunchly resisted by all. I think they are destined for the thrift store! Maybe today!

    1. I grew up in a family where the kettle was always on the hob. I drink it not quite as much but it is still enjoyed in our wedding China :)

    1. It was only when I got married and moved here that I found out about other teas. My favorite way to drink tea is with a drop of milk, no sugar. I am also fond of green tea and chamomile infused with honey and vanilla :) but bone china screams for a proper cup of British tea.

  20. I am wondering what tea cup pattern that is? I have a candy dish in the same pattern. What a wonderful quote you have shared with us today. And the tea cup is so pretty.
