MONDAY CHORES

You already know how I feel about housework.
I've told you before how I hate, hate, hate it !
So I won't go on about it any more.

However ..........

today when I was  up to my elbows in trying to remove layers of grimy dust from my kitchen shelves I was inspired with a topic for today's post.
You see I have three little shelves in the corner of my very modern kitchen
 and there I display my collection of teapots.

So here they are, all nice and shiny clean !



They are all gifts from my SIL.

She found this cute Adam and Eve one in an Op Shop

This is my everyday teapot - rarely used as I'm a black tea, teabag sort of girl !


Gifts from students !!!


I think they add an element of fun to my kitchen.


Cheers.

  2. They are lovely, Helsie. I love the thatched cottage, the duck (although can't see if it's a teapot or not), the watermelon and the little red one. I wonder if that one was a present from a class.

  3. I know what you mean about housework! Love your collection of teapots. Thanks for your comments on mine and in reply to your question - I don't know where my daughter is just now but last I heard she was near Townsville and heading north! I am hoping no news is good news as always - who'd be a mother?!

  6. What a cute little posting. Sooooooo, glad they are all shinie and clean. I love the feel when those things that sit there and collect dusty get a good washing.

    I'm a black straight tea gal myself.

    By the way, the first is my fav. Use those colors for your next quilt. It would turn out spectacular.

    Toodles,
    Kate

  9. Housework, what housework - one of the perks of living in PNG - House Mary (Stephanie) does it all!
    Love those quirky teapots!

  10. People just don't use teapots any more do they? which is such a shame. Yours look very pretty as a collection and I am glad you use one!
    Love

  11. PS Have just had a text from my daughter and she is in Cairns - going diving tomorrow and has a new job to go to somewhere near Bunderberg wherever that is! I am a happier bunny now I have heard from her as you can imagine! Thanks for your interest.
