Paula Deen gift teapot

The popularity of this Southern cook has really taken off in the last few years.  I have purchased her magazines and watched her two television  shows, and now I have added a Paula Deen teapot to my collection.  A friend was kind enough to include this special gift (just for me) with their gift card.

 Well, actually it’s a tea for one set.  It is very bright and pretty, with the flowers and a cute little leaf handle on the lid.

We received several restaurant gift cards, which is a real treat for us since we don’t eat out often.  We were also gifted with some nice picture frames.

 

This couple knew that the 30th anniversary is pearl.  The frame has pretty pearl and diamond accents on the corners.

Of course I lifted a cup of London Cuppa at the party with some of my lovely Red Hat friends.

What fun!  Now I’ll have to wait ten years for the big ruby anniversary celebration, or maybe I should just celebrate every year married as the special milestone it is.
