I don’t know about you, but certain things will strike a chord
with me, and this teapot is one of them. In the shape of “Ye Olde
McCormick Tea House” (after the original landmark in Baltimore, MD, circa
1969-1976, where hostesses, in Elizabethan gowns, served tea both hot and cold),
my mother acquired this decades ago, and I loved it. My hope was that she would
give it to me, but she liked it too, so she kept it. Now it is mine, alas, and
I enjoy it every day, as it has become a part of my decor on the kitchen island.
Armed with my favorite teabag assortment, this is going to be my “go to” teapot for the winter. It just
speaks to me, shaped like a tea house, with all of those people inside, it
makes me feel all warm and cozy.
In the winter, drinking hot tea is always a pleasure, but it will be even more
so with this teapot, now to decide what color cups to use with it.
Is there an item that strikes a chord with you? Tell me about it.
