Hi Allison,
Love the Zombie teacup (cute post title!) and mango tea - yum! About your tag, I'm with you on the Discovery Channel oh and the fruit too, now watermelon is sounding very good.
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog about Gigi (the cat that our neighbors left behind). I am so with you on no tolerance towards that... it all comes back. She's a sweetheart and the most trusting of all our cats - lucky Zeke another one to watch over.
Congrats on your award - so deserved.
Have a great weekend... love all the things you don't want to do, I won't even go there myself right now ;)

What a cute little teacup! I love the lacy hanky, too... I think I'll participate in the Crazy 8 thing 'cause it sounds like fun... Thanks for all your comments. They really mean a lot to me! I'm following your blog!! I thought I was already, but I checked and I wasn't... Also I added you to my blog roll! Love your blog, sweetie!
Congratulations on your win - isn't it adorable!
I've enjoyed my visit over to you - have a great week!!!

congratulations on your teacup!
I'm jealous you get to go to the rose bowl flea market
What a cute post. I love, love the new teacup, SPOON and the HANKIE!!!! Very cute. And the tag was fun. I Like them because we get to know a little bit more about people that participate. But I just did one, so, my readers might be bored to tears if I did another. LOL.
If you like the RoseBowl flea market, I understand alot of the same vintage vendors are at the PCC one too. If you go, let me know. It's the first Sun of each month. I want to go to the Vintage one in .. . is it Irvine or Tustin? Can't remember what day it is.
Love your award!
Girl, your birthday is right around the corner! WHOO HOO!!!!! My youngest will turn 21 in Dec!. WOW!
Have a great day!

Hi Allison,
Great prizes! Can't believe that's a hankie, how fancy! UCSD isn't out yet? Well, it's almost over and then you can sleep in. Good luck on finals! BTW, my cousins and I are planning a thrift shopping day in San Diego soon. Do you recommend any thrift shops in SD? I know you're from Orange county, are there any out there worth going to? I'm on a mission this summer, too!
Congrats on your nice gift. Thanks for sharing yourself with us. Have a lovely weekend.
It's a beautiful teacup and I absolutely love the spoon!!
Gorgeous teacup! Congrats on winning! ;-)

YOU LIKE HOUSE?! I love that show, I had a dream that I was dating House and he gave me a piggyback ride through the hospital. Obviously the leg thing was a non-issue in dreamland.
Let's watch it together when I see you! :)
I do have a small collection of teacups. The one you won is adorable I love it and the teaspoon. That was a sweet giveaway to win...

:::insert wild applause::: Tea cup looks FABULOUS! Yay...I'm so glad it made it to you (and in one piece. Phew! ;-) I was having computer/work/life (LOL!) issues so I'm sorry I couldn't visit you & the little cup earlier. It looks fabulous and I'm so glad it's with you!
