Pink Tea-Cups For My Tea

 It is snowing outside . I am in between wool projects, my sheep have not yet begun to lamb. I need not leave the house except to feed the animals. I decided to get out all my lovely pink teacups , bake a  batch of sugar cookies using freshly gathered duck eggs & butter . Baked with pink sugar sprinkles , they look to me as tasty as they are ! Oh the fragrance of freshly baked sugar cookies , there is no artificial scent that matches it , though many try.

I like to take out all the teacups of one colour too, from time to time. I can just imagine the perfume of the sugar cookies - I haven't made any in ages.
It's very cold up here this week - I hope the snow doesn't hang around where you are!

Beautiful tea cups Kathy. There is nothing like the taste of tea in a china cup, is there.

Hi Kathy,
I love your pink teacups! Your sugar cookies would be a wonderful treat with a cup of tea. I agree that the aroma of fresh baked sugar cookies wafting through the kitchen is so comforting and sweet. It speaks of home to me. Thank you for sharing and coming to tea. Have a lovely day, my friend.

Blessings,
Sandi

Enjoy your tea, enjoy your day. Do you know I cannot see a picture of a sheep without thinking of you, lol....

Terri said...

Fun, fun, fun! Getting out your pink tea cups in the middle of winter is a wonderful idea! The cookies make a great treat. Such lovely times in the winter, when we can do things like this and just enjoy! Yay!
Hugs,

Kathy,
I found my soft burlap ribbon in an after Christmas bin a Walmart. I noticed some in their craft isle in tan and red also.
