I drink tea in the morning to give me that needed boost to wake me up. It is the first thing I do, even before both my eyes are open. I drag my sleepy one eyed self to the hot water kettle and turn it on and then go on with my morning routine. I drink tea during the day when I can't think of anything to do, when I need to de-stress, when the weather is cold, hot, rainy, or bright and I even drink it before I go to bed to help me sleep. It is my go to drink, reviving me and calming me, bringing a smile to my soul.
If I actually drank as much water as I do tea, I would probably have flawless health...

As my dad says, "Tea me, please".
How lovely! I have two Mary Cassatt paintings for you that show ladies at the tea table. I'll gmail them to you and you can post or comment. Mary Cassatt, 19th century American artist in Paris, having tea in the afternoon with friends...what could be better!
ReplyDeleteI also sent you some more from Mary Cassatt - special links. Wish I could be with you for a much needed cup of tea right now!
ReplyDeleteI am actually drinking tea just now while reading! I love your kettle btw, I haven't seen one that comes with it's own teapot like that. Very cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks Fern! The teapot is actually from Anthropologie. The kettle came with a glass carafe that I didn't like, but I found a teapot that had a small enough base to sit on the plate warmer. :D
ReplyDeleteFound this poem for you:

Twas very small, three guests in all, I, Myself, and Me
Myself ate up the sandwiches, while I drank up the tea
Twas also I who ate the pie and passed the cake to
