As I was planning for the March edition of Tea On Tuesday’s (March 18), I had to look back on previous posts to remember all of my teapots which took a little bit of time. It hit me that I should write a blog post that would serve as my catalog of teapots. Let’s take a look at my teapot collection! All of them have not been included!READ MORE
