I love fancy teapots. Unfortunately, I only have one and it’s packed away because I don’t have occasions to use it because I am the only tea drinker in my household. My husband and sons only drink tea if they have cold symptoms, and they have no interest in a fancy tea party. The pretty Victorian stained glass teapot in the photo above does not belong to me, but I wanted to share a Victorian teapot and I found this pretty pot on Amazon and chose to share the photo.

I am a practical tea drinker. I do have one fancy tea cup that I do enjoy using when I really want to feel fancy or dainty. That may happen more frequently now that I have my electric tea kettle because I can make enough tea in that, to be able to refill my pretty cup. Otherwise, I do like to use my mugs because I like a good amount of tea, especially if I’m sitting in the living room with a good book. Then I don’t want to have to be interrupted to go refill my pretty cup.

What about you? Do you have a fancy teapot? Do you use it?
