Have a cup of tea!

As you can see from my sidebar, January is national hot tea month.

Ok, its 65 degrees out there today, but, hey, tea is good for you and warms you through and through.

I thought I'd post a picture of my new tea pot that dh and I got last weekend. I've already used it a few times and am trying not to crack it with boiling water.

It's nice nice to have a beautiful tea pot to use.

Kewl. Did you get it when you were antiqueing? It's very beautiful. Some of that rose green tea would go great in it.

You're right!! Rose tea would be perfect!!

And I've already had 2 cups of tea tonight...unfortunately it is not 65 degrees here...more like in the 30's. And we have snow. Yuck.

Jennifer,

It's definitely gotten colder here since I first posted! It keeps going back and forth. No snow at the moment, though!

Marilena,

Life is too short *not* to wear your pearls, *or* use your nice tea pots!

That teapot would fit in nicely in Hyacinth Bucket's kitchen!

Staying in Balance said...

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
