She ALWAYS had one, and they were so so pretty.<br /><br />Sounds like our Moms were true gems.<br /><br />I lost mine in 1993, and life lost much of its lustre, to be honest. I miss her every day, still after nearly 19 years.

She didn't drink hot tea, only iced but my grandmother sometimes fix a cup of hot tea when I visited her.
