Coffee or Tea?

Hello again from The French Hens Nest and Happy New Year!

Coffee or Tea?






This is what I asked my sister when she came to stay for New Year's Eve.  Earlier in the day we went to a favorite consignment shop and I found these beautiful cups and saucers for just $9.00 for 6 cups and 5 saucers! 

The manufacturer is Hacketfors and it is a Swedish company.  I cannot find my pattern so I don't know the name.  If anyone is familiar with it please tell me about it.


Then on the way home we stopped at Dunkin Donuts and Jeannie bought a delicious selection.



Now, what is it to be, coffee or tea?  I think coffee  and doughnuts are so good together, don't you?

I think it will be coffee today.



 






Won't you join us?

Affectionately,
Linda and Jeannie

    Yum! I am a coffee or tea girl. I am so jealous that you have Dunkin Donuts! We don't have one in Denver and I miss it!

      Is that with or without chocolate? Didn't I luck out on the tea cups for $9?!

      Have a great day!

    Hello ladies,
    I am very slow getting around for my visits this week. I have a sprained hand & wrist.:( Your cups and saucers are really sweet; what a find! Love the look of the donuts under glass! I enjoy my coffee in the morning very much. I'm sure you gals are having a wonderful visit! Super post and thanks for joining me.

    Blessings,
    Sandi

    Good Evening Jeannie and Linda, My word, what a find, $9 for those beautiful cups and saucers. I would love a cup of coffee and a nice chocolate doughnut please....I have my serviette at the ready.
    My daughter took me to a Dunkin Donuts when I visited her in Atlanta and I have to say they were delicious.
    Hope you both enjoyed your coffee and doughnuts.
    Best Wishes
    Daphne

      Thank you Karen! Drop by any time for coffee. I almost dropped the cups when the saleslady told me they were $9.00! I also found 6 Johnson Bros Summer Chintz cups/saucers for $6.00! It was a good day!

      Have a great evening,
