Traveling Teapot

 
Let me introduce you to a special teapot.
Really it looks like any other ordinary teapot.
The color of this teapot is plum.
It holds 6 cups of tea.
It pours rather nicely.
So you say, what makes this teapot special?

This is the Traveling Teapot.
It is just beginning it's journey.
It is an adventure of those on a yahoo/facebook group
called Afternoon Tea Across America.
Well the group actually includes those in other parts of the world now.
The journey has begun with the one that organized this adventure
and I am the first recipient.
What stories this teapot will tell as each month it will
travel to someone else throughout the US, Canada,
and even to France.
If you would like to follow the teapots adventures

The cake is a Victoria Sponge Cake with strawberry jam and marscapone/whipped cream filling. Powder sugar lightly sprinkled on top.

I participated in a "traveling teapot" adventure a few years ago and enjoyed it -- but I never heard how/where it ended up!
