'Til Their Clean And Sparkly
I've been busy doing a little spring cleaning.
A sink full of warm sudsy water, and anything within reach gets a turn.
By the time I get through washing everything, it will be time to start all over again.
Handling your treasures makes them so much more a part of you. I love spring cleaning and how everything feels as fresh as the new season that's about to begin.
I can imagine how much you actually enjoying doing this. I love your teapots and china! I am waiting for my big cleanup until we have closed down the wood burning stove for the summer. We do enjoy its cozy warmth, but my at the ashes and dust that collect on everything.
How sweet Star, and yes by the grace of God we are ok, sadly I can't say that about a lot of people. The tornado was an F3 with 150 mile an hour winds, it came through Nashville, and continued it's path east, through our town, and onwards further. There are streets and businesses we can hardly recognize and of course the loss of life being the worst. We will continue to stay strong, and offer those who are directly affected our help. Hugs to you dear friend. ~Jo x

Hot soapy water makes everything shine. I like dishes just like you. The set of blue bowls are great to see all stacked up.
Beautiful blue!
So pretty! One nice thing about china cabinets is that everything stays pretty much clean. :-)
Jo, I can hear you humming now, as you wash your pretty teapots and china. I love those teapots. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie

You have such beautiful china, and those teapots are awesome! Thank you for sharing these lovely things. You have a super day, hugs, Edna B.

Jeg elsker slikt!
Hello Jo, Star here. Just checking to see if you are o.k. After the recent tornado in your area?
Best wishes, Star

I need to get busy and do same thing. Love those tea pots. Here's hoping spring is really close. Enjoy seeing your pretty blue white dishes
Everything is always so sparkling clean and beautiful in your home. You make me want to go fill the sink with hot soapy water. :)
