Sryashta spins golden yarn inside which she weaves your fate. (If you are a good and kind person, she may just take matters into her own capable hands and improve it.)
She is the goddess of good fortune and serves as the household assistant of Mokosh, the Slavic earth goddess.
Sryashta is a variant of the Dolya/Nedolya myth.

I'm a little teapot, short and stout. Here is my handle, here is my...other...handle...?
Shit! I'm a sugar bowl!
Except I'm not even that! I'm a lousy sugar-pourer.
why would you want a sugar bowl (with its spoon, lid and open-to-air-ness) when you could have the far superior, self-contained sugar dispensing system of a sugar shaker? My sister (who cooks) and I (who doesn't cook, but has a wicked sweet tooth) will be fighting over two things in my mother's kitchen someday, the stainless steel mixing bowls and The Sugar Shaker (both of which I believe were originally my great grandmother's)

I love it! I love it!
LOL.
I like it...
it has a very diner-esque quality to it.
And a good sugar shaker it is!

Simple, functional, practical, humble.
Oi loike it.
Looks familiar. It does the job of delivering the sweet stuff very well. And it makes a GREAT explosion when dropped into a full cereal bowl!
That's not so bad. At least you're tall and lean. I'm definately a teapot!
