All Things Tea

This sweet cup I found on my "day out" for my 42nd birthday. Jeff let me take an afternoon to just get away and I wandered around a local antique shop. I paid just $3 for this cup! I know this is probably me just dreaming but I have a feeling it is worth more. I didn't realize it at the time but it has a unique stamp on the bottom of the saucer. It is also handpainted.....and signed. Whether or not it is worth more it is worth much to me. I had had a particularly difficult week before I found this cup and it just made me happy. Now, I realize that THINGS can not really make us happy BUT I also think that sometimes a simple thing can bring pleasure and enjoyment and so long as we do not become overly caught up in that there is nothing wrong with finding enjoyment in beautiful things. This little cup cheered me up and every time I use it I enjoy it. I am thankful that God is the giver of all good things....even the ability to enjoy something as simple as a pretty cup.
