“I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let’s face it, friends make life a lot more fun.” – Chuck Swindoll
On arrival of my box, I was so excited to see what was inside! Kim blogs over at Wisdom with Needle and Thread, and gifted me with a gorgeous infuser mug along with an entire box of my favorite tea, some pretty stickers for my scrapbooking/journaling, and a sweet card tucked inside a lovely vellum envelope!!!
I adore the delicate floral pattern in soft blues and greens with sweet pops of yellow and orange on my mug. It's rimmed in gold too. I love the fact that it is an infuser mug! I have never had one of these. As soon as I saw it, I immediately washed it up and made a cup of my favorite tea, Plantation Mint!
Thank you, Kim, for the lovely gifts! I use my tea mug often and love it!!!

I sent my package to Rainey, who is also a blogger over at Flower Lady's Musings and just happens to live about an hour from my sister! We've exchanged several emails. Rainey is SUPER at correspondence and I have loved learning more about her life in S FL. I have gotten interrupted every time I sit down to write Rainey and end up sending out a fairly quick and short note. It drives me crazy! I'm so sorry about that Rainey! Please don't give up on me. I have truly enjoyed getting to know you and sincerely hope we get to meet one day.
Hop on over to The Enchanting Rose and see what everyone received. Hopefully, you'll be inspired to join us in the next exchange.
Blessings to all!

Hello dear Anne~~Look at that beautiful mug and an infuser as well, how wonderful! It's such a dainty looking mug, the kind I like to drink from.
ReplyDeleteYou had the pleasure of gifting to Rainey, oh what a joy for you. I have come to appreciate that sweet lady through her beautiful blog and friendship. How wonderful should you ever get to meet up with one another.
Have a beautiful day~~
Anne, Stephanie is such a sweetheart to organize this sweet swap. I need to be involved in the next one! Blessings~
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that your mug has a tea infuser! That is so unique, and the cup is so beautiful as well!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely package you received, Anne! I love the infuser! Rainey is a dear blog friend of mine, we have experienced similar loss, I adore her and I'm sure she loved what you sent. Blessings, Cindy xo
ReplyDeleteOOH Anne! A tea infuser in a beautiful tea cup, I am in love! I would SO love one of those! What brand of cup is it? I need to find one, lol! Isn't this tea cup exchange just the most delightful thing! I am so thankful that our paths crossed in the tea exchange in the past, and am so blessed by your friendship. Hugs to you today dear friend! Do drop me a note sometime and let me know how you are doing!

ReplyDeleteGood evening {late evening} my sweet and precious friend! Ah, what a joy to visit you. I loved seeing what Kim blessed you with and wow, what a pretty infuser mug! The floral pattern is ever so lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for participating. Your presence always makes this even extra special. Much love to you, dear Anne!
Hi Anne! You received such a wonderful package and a great infuser mug!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry I missed the exchange. I've always enjoyed picking put the mug and goodies, and love seeing what was chosen for me. The infuser mug is beautiful. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAnne, I love infuser mugs and can get multiple infusions just by removing the infuser. Your mug is gorgeous. I'm jealous! Ha! The exchange is so much fun and full of love. Makes the world a much "closer" place. Have a lovely week. May it be tea filled!
ReplyDeleteKim sent you such a pretty lidded tea mug! Love the china infuser insert...something I'm going to treat myself to one day soon ;) I just enjoyed a box of Bigelow's Earl Grey tea from Stephanie. It was so good! Enjoy your day,
ReplyDeleteWendy
I absolutely adore that mug- not only is it beautiful, but it is so practical and functional too!
ReplyDeleteStephanie works so hard at putting these wonderful exchanges together - I shudder at the logistics, I can hardly remember to pick up milk at the store - and the blessings she gives to us in this way is amazing. The true treasures are the friendships made for sure.
What a pretty mug! The lid will keep your tea nice and warm.
ReplyDeleteI see you received an infuser mug too. :-) Mine is a different style, but same idea. You received a nice package.
ReplyDeleteA very pretty tea cup from Kim. Great exchange, wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteOh, your infuser mug is gorgeous; such a pretty pattern. I have not seen one as pretty as this one. So lovely to visit your lovely blog.
