Tea and Other Ramblings...

"Strange how a teapot can represent at the same time the comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company." I love a good pot of tea-the beauty and delicacy of the teapot and its adjoining family of teacups. I am always in search of the perfect teapot. A good cup of tea whether in fine company or in solitude provides me a place to share my thoughts or simply gather them.

Hello again! Another beautiful morning in North Carolina! It is only 14 degrees outside this morning. I think it has warmed up some. Yesterday and the day before it snowed and was in the teens temp-wise and so all the schools were closed and there was hardly anyone on the road when we went out to the store. They called it a snow day but the snow looked like a powdered sugarsprinkling on a cake or something. Really heavy snow, guys! I think that I might have even been able to pick out the individual snowflakes in the yard! There was, however, heavy frost on the road and at times it was a bit slick, not too bad though. The odd thing was that even though we were out at 1:00pm, the road looked like it wasn't even affected by the cars traveling on it. I guess that I've never seen that kind of thing - no snow on the ground but the roads frozen like that. Very dry. Very white. Very cold. Very wierd!
