1. Jane a fellow blogger/Splitcoaster (harrahX2) has been waiting a long, long time for me to feature the teapot she sent me as a joke so many, many, many months ago. She and her buddies from work picked up this teapot and sent it to me as a challenge, if you will! Snort! She refers to it as the *Butt Ugly* Teapot and she's basically been chomping at the bit waiting for what I (and YOU) would come up with. She wondered if the Photographer and I could shed any light on what the big pink thing is. We could not! (Edit: Sabrina thought it might be some sorta fruit! That's a good idear!) I was 100% stumped by this teapot but it did remind me of Sumo Wrestling!
2. We have been invited to a Japanese Tea! And guess what? It's at the home of a professional SUMO wrestler! We will have our shot at Sumo wrestling, drinking tea while sitting on the floor and dressing in our best Japanese attire or Sumo belt! Snort!
3. In order to find out how you get in the back door at the Teaparty, visit my blog. Or if you just want to join the challenge or see the other Teapot Tuesday Cards.
Thanks for the fun Jane!

OMGosh, how funny is this??!!!! Cindy, we can ALWAYS count on you for a laugh!! That's what makes your teaparties so much fun!!! Your sumo wrestler is just sooooo funny!!! And that pink "thing" on the teapot... well, I agree with some of the others that said it looks like a bellybutton.... eeeewwwww!
I am so bummed that I've been so busy these past few weeks. My son's sports have got me running like crazy, and we are planning a graduation open house for my middle son. The party is in 3 weeks (!), and I willl have lots to do until then!!! I hope all my friends here do not forgot about me!!! I will be hanging out again for sure in about a month, and I am gonna try my HARDEST to be at the teaparty next week for your one year anniversary!!!
This looks like another fun week, Cindy!! I am gonna watch for the backdoor guests!!! Hee Hee. Butt cards are funny!!!

Cindy, your card is reealllyy imaginatively ugly to go with the teapot...but I agree with Dawn, I think the most this Sumo Wrestler will be flingin is some sushi...his legs are way too skinny...but I am glad you spared us the flab!!
I lauged so hard, but refrained from viewing any teapot cards until I brought my own...thought you could use a bit of refinement to go with the sumo wrestling sake drinkin teap party goers this week!!
Thanks for the laughs, week after week!! I have no idea what that pink thing is and am trying not to look too hard to figure it out!

Am I the only one that saw a flamingo???? Did I drink from the saki pot before I looked at the teapot? WHO am I? Just a few questions I needed to throw out at the teapot partiers today. Love the sumo activity going on in the circle. Was fun when MariLynn tossed in the auditor. LOL What a fun part-ay! Thanks for having us! TFS :0)

Your teapot and card are a riot, Cindy! Only you could come up with such a cute and creative card for this teapot! Thanks for having us at your tea party again this week! I hope you are able to keep things under control! I've spotted a few really rowdy party goers sipping sake and slinging sushi!

That's some cheeky card! What IS that pink thing? He isn't hugging a sick pig from last week is he? I hope not. Maybe it's a giant peach? Oh, I guess it is his belly. First we have belly dancers and now this! What a lively bunch of parties you throw!
Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Cindy thank you so much for all the fun I am having at your tea parties. I really look forward as well as my daughter Maureen to see what the tea party is going to be. If anyone asked me about a sumo wrestler, or chickens at tea parties would think they were drinking sak. Everyone has been so friendly welcoming me and including me in on all the fun. All I can say is keep it going and looking forward to joining in on your 2nd year. TFS and all the fun I am having. Anytime you need my help just call on me.
