Oh cool, we used to have one of those ball infusers when I was little... wonder what ever happened to it. Must've got lost in a move or something. ):
My step-dad has a ton of these pretty china tea cups and saucers-- I think a couple of them were his mother's originally, but he's added to the collection a bit. I love the idea of them too, but I always end up just making a mug instead; I'm a little afraid of breaking the cups, and mugs are one of those "curl up with" kinds of things in my head, I guess. Comforting.
That tea room looks lovely! I would totally go with you if I could. <3
One year for Mother's Day I took my mom to a one for brunch. It was lots of fun, but unfortunately it was a seasonal kinda place and closed down not long after. There are a couple other tea rooms in town, but I never really think about them during the day, lol. I'll have to check into one next Mother's Day, see if they have any specials running. :D
