Lovely! You got it right on the sip & see, too. The old "see-ers" used to read the tea leaves in the cups with the bride's future in them...

Oh! And sometimes there's the ones for new babies, where they bring the baby to be "seen" after it's born instead of before. --Kn0x--

Thanks.


My Auntie often read the tea leaves at Bridal or Baby showers. That's going back many years now. A wonderful memory nudge Mini and thank you for that. 5 forks from me.
