About this scrapbook page:
My husband came home many years ago bearing this very old antique samovar knowing how I loved antique things as a gift. In the right lower corner is the actual photo of my samovar which I extracted and scrapped. Coal but generally pine cones were used to heat up the water in the samovar. It was almost ritualistic to sit by the samovar...enjoy a hot cup of tea and chat with good company.

Thank you for your kind comments and support.

Today I could offer the first snowdrops.The proximity of Valentine's Day was perhaps not a coincidence.The chilly spring takes risks while the snowmen are not far from the delicate flowers. For your kindness I would like to table some flowers to your gallery. As in the Far East. Here I would also like to thank you for giving us the opportunity to see the spring every day by visiting your gallery.
