Coffee - Coffee

My two newest finds . . .

A   COFFEE  table

and a

COFFEE POT !

This spring we bought a new coffee table.

I had been on the hunt for one for a long time

And finally found one that I liked

And that met my criteria

(no glass top, legs on the bottom so the dogs can't run under it, and a smooth top so that

there are no nooks or crannies to accumulate . . . well, dirt and crumbs)

And I liked the way it looked

But Husband Jim was not the best caretaker of the coffee table

Therefore, a replacement was needed

And as I walked through flea market and antique mall,

a new coffee table was always on the back of my mind.

I serve both coffee and tea

And I'm not a big one on using the coffee marker carafe to serve coffee.

Of course, I have the silver . . . but it's not really for casual meals -- for family meals

More for company meals

Spode Blue Italian 

is my blue and white transfer ware of choice

And this Spode Blue Italian coffee pot

will pour breakfast brew in style!

The new coffee table has a nice heft about it that the old one didn't have

It's also an antique which fits our style better.

Husband Jim has promised to never put a coaster less glass on the "new" table!

And my coffeepot . . . 

It looks good next to the teapot

(that I've had forever)

And you can really see the difference between tea

(I'm a little teapot short and stout . . . )

and coffee

(much taller and thiner!)

And in the living room
