ReplyDeleteCome over to my place where I'm having a giveaway too. It goes on until Wednesday.
Kary, I've been so absent here lately (you and little Teddy continue to be in my thoughts no matter where I am!), I don't feel right in entering your lovely giveaway, but I wanted to tell you how thoughtful, meaningful and generous your gift is, and I'm sure that whomever the winner is, it will be a cherished treasure!
ReplyDeleteYour new photos look beautiful, and set the perfect tone! Well done!
Hi Teddy, it's Duke and my mom loves tea and she loves china, she's a dishaholic! I know she'd love that beautiful teacup! Do the cookies come with it? If she wins would you drop in a doggy biscuit for me? Thanks and have a great day!
ReplyDelete300 posts! woohoo, girl! way to go! love all the new pics! don't put me in the giveaway...spread the wealth! haha!
ReplyDeleteJust too cute. I'm right behind you closing in on the big 300. I'm just looking at your wonderful pictures of VT on the right. I remember so many of those places and scenes from our Sept. trip too. Was that you right behind us with the camera out the window... I thought so.... too funny.
ReplyDeleteToodles,
Kate
Kary, what a lovely giveaway. I adore the china pattern, very colonial New England. I would be honored to give that sweet teacup a home. Blessings to you, Julie

What a nice item for a giveaway. I love the old china tea cups. They just don't make them like that any more. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are the seasons, Kary. Get me in the mood for every one. I just added up. 2 Blogs, 213 posts so far. No stopping for me now. I am a mug and coffee person and an iced tea person, but if I were to win your pretty tea cup, I promise to drink hot, spicy tea and think of you. Oh heck, I will get one of my unused china cups and do it anyway. Congratulations on 300!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 300th post! The cup and saucer are beautiful!

Hi Teddy, it's me Cat Boy. I have a cat named Teddy which you should not let influence you in any way, but . . . do me a favor and put your paw on my name. I drink a lot of tea and I even have a tablecloth similar to the one in the picture so the cup would look nice in my kitchen.
ReplyDeleteGive Kary my best.
My dear little lone cup needs a companion. Please, Teddy, pick me!!!
ReplyDeleteVery cute...funny, I just posted yesterday how I need a new mug...thanks so much for the chance.

Oh how lovely -- I'm enjoying reading your blog and the wonderful recipes. I live in Chicago -- light years away from the beautiful area you live in. Your area looks like heaven.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! I am up to about 60. It takes me forever to photograph, choose photos and write a post. Then, I want it oceanfront for more than a day. Do you cater? My cousins in Santa Barbara might want to know about you. Your CV is impressive. Have you heard about Mario Batali's Eatly in NYC. My girls have been and said it is amazing. I'm dying to go.
ReplyDeleteBest,
