Christmas Gifts to Ourselves

last December 23, jon and i were supposed to go to Chinatown in Ongpin, Manila to look for teapots and tea cups to add to our collection. however, since we went last minute shopping for those who were missed in the buying of gifts.... we didn't have the opportunity to go to Chinatown.
the following day, December 24, while jon and i were at SM Megamall looking for a dentist, we passed by a Chinese guy selling big porcelain vases and wares at 60% discount. we stopped by to see if he has any teapot set on sale..... and lo and behold, he had 4 sets!!! we bought 3 of the 4 and we were very happy that we didn't have to go so far as Ongpin to be able to buy ourselves 3 new sets..... at big discounts!!!
two of the sets are porcelain, one plain and the other in green & white.


the third is a Yixing clay pot with a 3-legged frog (auspiciously lucky) as handle of the cover of the teapot.
