Earlier this week, I reached into the cabinet to retrieve my little teapot and my grip slipped. The top broke into half a dozen pieces. While I was able to apply a bit of cyanoacrylate to reassemble the lid successfully, using it near something I intend to ingest... Let's just say that I am thinking about drilling some holes in the base and calling it a flower pot.
Fortunately, I was able to order a replacement the same day. In the meantime, I did need a temporary solution whilst awaiting delivery of the new teapot...
Who'd've thought we'd have a bowl just the right size?
My new teapot arrived in only two days. I think that she is a very cheerful teapot, just perfect for greeting one on a bitterly cold, dark morning.
Doesn't she look cheerful?
How about now?
She is such a cheerful teapot that I think that she deserves a name and not something overly obvious like "Sunny".
I do believe it may very well be time to get to know my cheerful new friend a little better. Tea anyone?

I'd call her Betty!
ingrid mc'potts serves tea hot!
Hmm, I suppose Smiley is right out then...
Heh, what does it say that I thought of you straight off when I saw this?
She's a cute one. Having grown up with a Latin teacher mother, the name Felicity springs to mind.
Oh I adore your old teapot! It's too bad it broke. Where do you get such cheery teapots? I drink mugs and mugs of tea, but I'd love to get into the habit of drinking a pot of tea rather than keeping up with mugs.
That is so cute!! How about Sunshine, as in good morning sunshine.
What is your favorite kind/type of tea? I love it myself.
I would say "Chipper", but I'd hate to jinx the new pot with dings and cracks.
Make mine a Lady Grey, please.
That is a very cheerful teapot.
Well she is a very cheerful pot! How about Pollyanna?
Lillian. I like Lillian.
(My verification word is "glena". That would also make a good name.)
As you know, I am having "tea issues" right now so I'm afraid I won't be joining you in a cuppa. As soon as I'm over that and on to the next phobia, I'll take mine with milk!
Erasmus said Ingrid McPotts, I'm going to go for Maggie McPotts.
At least it was just th lid and you could still use the other pot to make tea! Imagine not being able to make any at all!
My husband keeps food-safe acrylic glue of some kind around for mending stuff you eat from when they break. But I like your new friend!
