My mother sent me some vintage bone china teacups. It wasn't connected to anything else. She'd had them a long time, she had them when I was a kid. It wasn't until she saw me coveting the teacups at Uncommon Objects that she realized I'd always admired them. So I got a box in the mail today
This is one of them, "Irish Elegance" by Royal Standard. The other one is by Paragon and I don't know the name of the pattern, but it's a colorful floral that looks vaguely like dogwoods to my uneducated eye.
The enclosed note said that tea always tasted better in them. I told her I'd make an extra special point of using the best tea when I drank from them as well!
When my finances recover I need to get a memorial tattoo for Molly. I'm torn between a picture of a cat, or a quote from The Last Unicorn, since she was named for Molly Grue and Molly Grue had some great lines.
