Beautiful Teapot (Just For Looking)

Just wanted to share this really beautiful yellow and flowered teapot. 

Love all the shapes–the pyramid base, the curly spout, the circular handle, and the little round ball at the top. 

Like most nice things, it’s too beautiful to actually use. 

(Almost like a million outfits in my closet that I never wear, because I don’t want to mess them up…)

This is where design trumps functions–and I would rather look at this and enjoy it as art more than drinking another cup of tea! 😉

Square Trees

So I never saw square trees until I visited Palm Beach, Florida. 

What’s the saying:

“It’s hip to be square!”

I definitely had to take a doubletake when I saw these. 

Wherever we were going, I was gonna stop and get a photo of this. 

These trees are almost as if they are from another planet. 

What planet would have square trees? 

Hope you enjoy it.
