My Teacup Swap gift from Susan in Rhode Island

Well...my teacup swap gift from Susan in Rhode Island arrived yesterday...right in time for Valentine's Day!  I was so excited to unwrap it! I found the neatest treasures and goodies!






In the package was:
a lovely Grosvenor blue harebell cup and saucer
a package of cinnamon crumpets
home made (and yummy) lemon shortbread cookies made with a cookie press pattern of teacups and teapots.
honey sticks
Dove chocolate hearts!!!
Hersheys Chocolate Caramel kisses!
2 chocolate truffles
and 3 packets of tea:
Victorian Rose
Brattle Street English Breakfast
Creme de Earl Grey (apparently Princess Di's fav)
a lovely hand made Valentine card



Thank you so much Susan. A lovely gift...and being enjoyed already....a teapot pressed lemon shortbread a few minutes ago with our afternoon tea.

To see the other Teacup Trade gifts that have been exchanged,
visit this link to Faith, Hope and Cherry Tea's blog. Faith Hope and Cherry Tea sponsored and organized it. Thanks so much for all your hard work, Sharon. A WONDERFUL idea!


Tomorrow I plan to share more about our visit to Victoria B.C. Canada for the Victoria Tea Festival!
