My teapot may never forgive me for this.

ps... don't anyone say anything about my floral teapot! I inherited it alright!



This seems like it could make for a fun thread. Stuff I inherited, all at least 15 years old:

:)) I've never seen anything like that timed tea-bagger! I think I would actually use that.

There really is a solution for everything.

A handful of books like this:




Questionable writing skills, but I like the look of them on the shelf and the words make me smile.

The Wagon and the Star 1929

David had listened enchanted. He had forgotten to feel lonely and shy. What a pretty little girl, he had thought. Her hair was the color of apple jelly when you held it up to the light. Not yellow and not quite red. Sort of in between. Her cheeks were pinky tan. Like peaches. Only not any fuzz.  :D

I like that commitment to fruit-based descriptions. Does it carry on in much the same way? Eyes like blueberries and such...

Her voice sounded like silver bells.

Oh, ˇKeith!! I've underestimated the writer's skills! She's a genius.

Well, the book said that he listened enchanted. So they must sound enchanting. :)
