I'm laughing, too, but for a different reason... I think you're teapot looks like a "she"!! Lipstick, a front laced bustier, eyebrows & rouged cheeks...don't you think? If so, then her position is a wee bit obscene. LOL Still laughing...please don't be offended? Its too cute, either gender!!
LOVE the photos of the calla lilies! I carried an armful in my wedding. We don't seem to grow them in OH. bummer :-( Thanks for sharing yours, though.
Hello from Frog Hollow Farm! Thanks so much for stopping by my post on the Philadelphia Flower Show - I see by your Calla Lilies that you are also a flower lover. We are 27 degrees here today - but my husband is determined to start his brocolli seeds indoors - we are both just waiting for spring to come and stay. Ciao, bella!
I agree with Rettabug. My first thought was that this was a lady teapot and "my oh my, what is she doing?" A wee bit obscene, but most definitely makes me smile.
The calla lilies are stunning in their beauty, Snap! I can see why you could not resist them! Your teapot is very much a conversation starter. I do believe Rett was right about her pose :)
Gorgeous calla! The colored ones are essentially annuals here, but I still like planting them. I do have a pretty creamy white one that comes back for me.
Oh I just love funky and unusual teapots and this one is awesome...great find:D

I love Callas.When I saw this one I knew I had to have it ... the beautiful golden color with a deep purple center.

When we lived on Galveston Island, we'd go downtown to the Peanut Butter Warehouse.It was filled with antiques and junk and so much fun.This teapot was one of the first things we found.There is no marking of any kind on his bottom.

He has a crackle finish. He makes me smile.You can see why he is a favorite.
