Shopping for English Tea Cups

Shopping for English tea cups or the mere thought of it works like an uppers drug on me.  It affects me positively.  I forget my worries and “growing up pains” and  all I feel is calmness.  For a few minutes while I scour the antique store,  I forget about the world.

I was looking for something I could hang on the chandelier.

Nice color and design but this set is from Japan.

The old lady cashier has some nice tattoos not only on her arms but also on her chest and neck.

I paid $10 plus tax for the set.

That $10 is a tiny amount to pay for a “high” only I knows. That’s cheaper than marijuana. How about you? What is that little thing that gives you a high?
