A Cozy Ceramic Harbor

I skidded right off the counter edge, hitched a gentle tumble onto a cushioned chair, and slid straight onto the big wooden dining table! In the middle sat a braided woven placemat cradling a plump ceramic teapot with a knitted cozy wrapped around its middle. Naturally, I couldn't resist a warm detour! I nudged my nose right against the thick woolly stitches, and it felt like pressing into a tiny heated sweater reef. A soft amber glow from the stove light reflected off the polished ceramic spout, casting a sleepy little arc right across my fins as I snuggled deep into the wool folds to rest for the night.
