What I've restocked:
a) Geek+Tea's As You Wish black tea 

 

I purchased this Oriental lily from my church's Easter flower market. I look forward to seeing it bloom!

 

Wishing you a Blessed Holy Week!

Tea Pouches

Several months ago, I purchased these beautiful zippered pouches from a local handmade store.

 

 

I just couldn't resist the gorgeous tea design!

 

 

The pouches are big enough to store teabags and loose leaf teas while travelling.

 

How would you use the pouches?

Irish Breakfast Tea in a clover teacup

In honour of St. Patrick's Day (March 17th), I'm sharing this vintage Queen Anne teacup (circa 1960s) decorated with yellow flowers and green clovers.

 

 

Of course, I'm sipping Irish Breakfast in this charming teacup!
