This chilly weather has had me curled up with a pile of blankets in my cozy socks and consuming what feels like gallons of hot bevies.

I'm a coffee gal most days, but I also enjoy a good cup of tea! My Mom had gotten me these gorgeous gold lip print tea cups earlier in 2013 and I fell in love with them!

Then, to my absolute and oh so very happy surprise.....this was wrapped up for me under the Christmas tree!

THE perfect vintage tea pot!!!

My jaw dropped and I practically squealed in delight!! Mom had mentioned that she had been looking high and low for one to go with the cups and she had found this one at a local fundraiser.....The stars definitely aligned!

I settled in on New Years day to enjoy a few cups and start my planning for 2014! (I even had a chocolate...or 2)
