56. Beautiful Pink Demitasses - 'Heritage' By Dora Papis for EasyLife Italy

I love sweet hot Earl Grey tea with some Arabic dates 'maamouls' (tarts). Sweet hot tea brings  back lovely memories of when I was a young girl when my grandfather and grandmother would bring me to the coffee shop, known locally as 'kopi tiam', There, we would order sweet and aromatic hot Ceylonese tea. We usually drank the tea with freshly charcoal-toasted bread with butter and egg-coconut cream jam ('kaya'). To a young and naive girl who had not seen other places, sips of hot afternoon tea and few bites of charcoal-toasted bread was pure bliss!

54. My 3-Footed Teacup & Saucer And Cake Plate Set By Dora Papis From EasyLife Italy.

This teacup set is one of my favourite teacup sets, because the teacup is designed like those 3-footed vintage bone china teacups and demitasses. Green happens to be one of my favourite colours, too!

53. 'Heritage' Tea Cups & Cake Serving Tray By Dora Papis For EasyLife Italy

My daughter, Stephany is back home for her summer break, and during one of the weekends, she brought me out looking for an engagement gift for her best friend. We visited one of my favourite shops at a the high-end shopping mall very near to the place where we resided. As usual, there is always something that catches my eye each time I visit this favourite store of mine.  And there I was, still in love with Dora Papis' design from EasyLife, Italy.

When we returned home, we sat down sipping hot and aromatic fruit tea with some macaroons and a couple of Arabic dates tarts! What a lovely afternoon - mother and daughter bonding after 6 months of separation!
