Tea Cup Tuesday-Ooooops!!!

It has been more than two years since Tea Cup Tuesday began, and I have never missed a post!
But last night, I totally blanked!
I am away on a trip to visit my new grandson and was so tired out I missed it! I am so sorry!
You all must be wondering where I am!

Here I am (she waves her hand high in the air!)
Welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday!!! Yay!!! 
Thank you Martha for your e-mail and shocking me back to reality!


Isn't this a sweet cup? It is new to me, I found it on my last trip to see my grandson. 

I just thought this cup was so very lovely!
The coloring is unique and the flowers a different mix than I normally see.

The plate is so colorful and lively!

Such a sweet cup and a joy in the hand.
There is a sweet bunch of flowers on the inside as well. 
Sorry they are blurry!


This adorable cup was made by Tuscan China, Stoke on Trent in England. The gold numbers are the pattern number, and if I could get a hold of a pattern list by them I would be able to look up the name.

Thank you so much for waiting for me to show up!
I  am so glad you are here and if you want to join in just sign in with linky tools below.
Hugs to you All!

    So, so pretty, Terri. I think forgetting once is fabulous! I wish I would forget that rarely. I got two cups for my birthday but we are out of town (actually at Mayo Clinic for Jud). So I will have to wait until next week to show my new beauties...truly rare ones!

    I adore your cup. Simply elegant!!!

    Hugs,
    Suz

    Hooray! I was about to email you wondering about Tea Cup Tuesday. :) I have been out of the blogging routing for about 3 months now and took my cup photos today. So I was looking at your previous posts to see if TCT was on hiatus for Christmas Sundays... Anyhow, it gave me some time to watch your new tree video. Love it btw. Already bought my trees earlier today. Michaels had the 21 pack for half price. I just couldn't wait to see your vid. Love it, easy as pie. Off to post and link up. Hugs Terri!
    Yours, H

    Hi Terri,
    Your new tea cup is fabulous! Beautiful colours on a beautiful motif.
    I'm glad your delay didn't have a serious cause but I was already missing your post...
    Thanks for your nice tea.
    Hugs

    p.s. Your cup is lovely and you're right, "lively." Such beautiful colors, it would be perfect to lighten up a dreary day.

    And, no worries about the post. Also glad to hear you are well.

    Terri just love all the beautiful cups you acquire! I know I have a beautiful Royal Albert stored away safely somewhere...just can't find it. So this week's link is about one serendipity experience. Thanks again for hosting.

    Your new cup and saucer are beautiful, Terri. For some reason, the floral motif used on this gorgeous cup and saucer looks so familiar but I have never seen this cup and saucer before. I love it. Thank you for sharing.

    HA HA Terri...

    You're allowed a teacup break every once in awhile...Sweet cup ...with those darling little imprints... and I always think that a floral bouquet inside the cup is a bonus when sipping tea... ENJOY your sweet little gransdson..It's a precious time... HUgs

    What a lovely cup/saucer, Terri. I did wonder what happened to you. You're visiting your new grandson, so I can imagine that time has stood still, and when you're with him it's like nothing else exists.

    Glad to see you, though, and to see your pretty floral tea cup.

    Enjoy your grand baby,
    Marianne

    I like that saying, "Better late than never." And it is so true...especially in this case:) I know how easy it is to forget when in the company of a grandchild. They can keep you pretty busy...and distracted with their cuteness.

    Your teacups is very beautiful! I agree that the flowers and pattern are unusual and uniquely lovely.

    Blessings,
    Charlotte

    Congradulations on the new grandson
    But this beautiful cup was worth the wait. It has been forever since I linked up for T.T. and I could almost qualify this week as I did a post on the pincushions that I make out of teacups. Have a BLESSED and Merry Christmas.

    Ya! Terri - I'm glad I wasn't the only one who "blanked!" I'm rushing out the door to work and remembered I hadn't posted my Tuesday tea on your site - you didn't have it up with I posted the others. Glad we've caught up - now - if only I ca\ould catch up on all my blog reading!!! Sweet cup - so cheery!
    Joy!
