Bonjour Friends!
I 'm sharing my Staffordshire Crown Trent teacup & saucer and Tea Time tray with you today!
My husband bought this teacup & saucer for me b/c he knows how much I love to collect teacups!
My husband & I will be celebrating our 25th Anniversary this year!  
We will be going to Veradera, Cuba and staying at IBEROSTAR Hotel & Resort in March. 
 I'm so excited to experience this tropical vacation with the love of my life!

This is a Kimberly Hodges Teapot from Hallmark.
I use this pretty teapot on a daily basis and it goes well with my kitchen decor.
I love the vibrant color and pattern!

                       My hubby & I are having this mini pecan pie for dessert tonight.
            Since we are empty nesters and watching our waste lines a mini pie is all we need! *wink*

  10. That's a pretty 25th anniversary teacup, most are silver and white and I've seen lots of them at the antique barn.
    Nothing like some hot sun in Cuba to celebrate with your hubby, congrats on a milestone anniversary this year.
    After making a small cake for the two of us, I'll have to see how I can replicate a small pie like your pecan one, which looks delicious.
