We drink green tea daily...it was also reccomended by our neurologist for my husband's Parkinson's Disease for brain function and it's antioxident properties.

Wow, I can't bel...Thanks for your visit, Karen. Wow, I can't believe that the Sadler teapot was on eBay for that price! I have to admit that I'm an emotional shopper so I usually buy china that I think are pretty, rather than a "good investment". At the same rummage sale, there was a woman behind me who was systematically checking the bottom of each teacup. She must have bought 5-6 teacups and I suspect that she's probably going to resell them for a much higher price! <br /><br />I've never tried selling items on eBay as it looks too complicated to me and the shipping rates in Canada are ridiculously expensive! So I usually just pass on teawares that I no longer want to my mom (HA!) or to interested family or friends. If there are no takers, then they go charity.<br /><br />I believe that things happen for a reason and I often find that if I miss out on a great china find, I'll find something even better down the road. So I'm sure another teacup/teapot will come along to steal our hearts.

My co-worker caught a nasty cold over the weekend and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't catch whatever she has (she's been diligent about using hand sanitizer and disinfecting everything she touches). But just in case, I'll drink some green tea this week to boost my immune season!<br /><br />Your Aynsley teacups are stunning! I saw some lovely Aynsley teacups for only $2 (!!!) at a church rummage sale last weekend. But silly me was trying to be good (I'm running out of storage so I'm only trying to get teacups of particular colours!) and I hesitated...O course, the teacups got snatched up quickly by other people! I should have followed your "Get it or regret it!" mantra.

Aynsley is such a lovely maker and the Foley is a beauty as well. The colours are gorgeous! Cute little plate too and oh my, your teapot is a gem! Lots to love here today. I really like your teacup stand and I would love to find one. <br />I hope you are feeling better soon. <br /><br />We are having some very nice weather the past few days but we've got three systems coming our way tomorrow and it's not going to be fun! We're expecting high winds and over one hundred mm. of rain over the next three days. Everyone is a bit nervous of it. <br /><br />Take care, my friend, and thank you for sharing your pretties with us.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />SandiSandi@ Rose Chintz Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415214311003251398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-508244778856829037.post-54384406337243686652015-09-28T20:45:53.980-07:002015-09-28T20:45:53.980-07:00I love that you found a pink teacup that matches y...I love that you found a pink teacup that matches your minty green one, Karen.

You certainly did well at Value Village. I do drink green tea whenever I feel a cold coming on or at the start of a sore throat. I thought it was in my mind that it made me feel a bit better. Guess now there is some research backing my claim. My favorite green tea is Genmaicha. It is a hearty green with roasted rice. Great for cold nights.
