TeaCups

There's something interesting about teacups.




I think teacups are photogenic, no?
But do you know that it was not until the year of 1700 did saucers appear?
In about 1750 a man named Robert Adams inspired tea sets that the tea cups had handles. Robert Adams also inspired the tea pot, sugar holders, milk/creamer containers, and even tea spoons to match. Brilliant, sir Adams!


If you're interested to know more about the history of teacups, you can find it here at this little but resourceful website.  
Wow, even a teacup has its own website!


"When you’re feeling sad & blue
And have no clue what to do
Sit down and have a cup of tea
And a hug or two or maybe three
Feel those troubles melt away
And start you on a better day"
