Over the years I had kept a cute teapot. It is a gift from a friend who was apologetic she could only afford to give me a teapot. She did not know I had been looking for a simple teapot. It is a porcelain teapot and really cute. I rarely use it because of its size. It is only a bit bigger than the coffee mug I am using. I tried to look for small teacups but those I found are either too small or the size does not match my teapot.
My teapot is not destined to be alone. Last month my sister accompanied her daughter who is to stay with me in Manila to look for a job. My sister brought with her so many items like rice cooker, whistling kettle, dish bowl and three teacups. These items are sort of gifts to me. I was very thankful I do not have to buy them anymore. To my surprise, the teacups matched my teapot! ☺
