T Stands For Happy Mail and tea infusers

 

It's T time and we are in my dining area today.  You can see my Christmas trees are out for another year.

I'm celebrating with very happy mail.

 

Also on the table are some tea infusers or tea balls.

Here's a card from my dear friend RO! and one from San Fransisco.

Two forever postage stamps,

both upside down!! (EDIT:I will look on USPS after I publish this, because I have spent five hours trying to upload this post).  The one on the right is a tulip.

  There are multiple stamps.

 

This incredibly beautiful card

 

has many layers to it, including a rocking horse!!!

This gem came to me from Jan,

whose blog is Crafty Scorpio.  Thank you so much Jan.  That rocking horse is a real winner!!!  You are so thoughtful.

RO! sent a lovely Thanksgiving card.  It has loads of glitter you can't really see in the photo.

This is a beautiful and heartfelt wish.  Thanks beyond belief, RO!  RO! also sent a Christmas card, but on the way to the table, I lost it.  I'm sure I'll find it as soon as I download these images.

 

EDIT: I didn't want Valerie reminding me I was late, so I skipped the tea infusers/balls.   Five hours to get these few photos on the blog.

Tea infusers and tea balls are useful when you have loose leaf tea. I have several, some of which I have shown in the past.  I also have my newest PBS mug on my table and it has black tea in it, but it's hard to see. 

The large ball on the back left belonged to my very British grandmother, although I never saw her drink tea.

This one has multiple parts.

True to form, as soon as I had everything put away, I found the card RO! sent me.  I'd even washed and dried the mug.

Here is the postage stamp also upside down.  It was first issued in 2021.  I looked for it and the other one from RO!, but couldn't find them.  They must be out of print.  I wonder if they are Endangered Species stamps.  If anyone knows. please let me know.

What an adorable snowman.  I love it and the little red bird, too.

What a fabulous and thoughtful card, dear RO!  I think of you a lot, too.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
