My sweet teapot

On Saturday Tony and I called into the local Asda supermarket.  We rarely shop there these days but we came away with this sweet kitty teapot... I am now officially an old lady with a cat shaped china teapot...…. and I am terrified of cats..  It had been reduced in price and  only cost £4.  I had been looking for a new teapot... have you seen the price of them?  The seeds that you can see drying are Hollyhocks.... I have a plan to grow a whole patch of them. You should see them down in Brightlingsea. They are everywhere..... Glorious spires of colour.


My kitchen windowsill...

  1. Your window display is lovely including the net curtain. I generally don't like net curtains but that one is lovely.

    1. I never used to like nets until I discovered the pretty 'cafe' nets... There are so many lovely designs

  2. As the owner of 5 cats I love the teapot. I wonder why you are terrified of cats? did you have a bad experience sometime?

    1. I often wonder if I did.. I used to be absolutely phobic about cats. I couldn't even look at one through the window. I am not that bad now

  3. I love hollyhocks. I have them in front of my pink cottage. They grow taller than the house. I like your new teapot. I found a used one from England at our church thrift shop. It's lovely chins, and will last and last...

    1. I think your hollyhocks are what attracted me to your blog... I stayed because I enjoy reading it.

  4. I love the teapot but then I love cats too :) I think it's perfect for you if you don't like the real thing; the china one won't be too threatening!
