tea

Just want you need to start your day!

Some people LOVE tea. Like really really LOVE it.

Bunny, you're made to give me tea, you don't have to act so put out about it!

Here, let me serve you.

Drink out of these mugs over the holidays pointedly in front of your parents when you fly home to visit. Maybe they'll learn how to text.

I love that this comes with it's own little stand!

I like it when my tea loves me back.

When times get tough, the tough get fancy. Or something like that. Seriously though, a handle on a cupcake is pretty seriously fancy. I don't think I could maintain that level of fancy for long. I'd end up with a frosting mustache or something.

I'm a sucker for stacking tea sets for one. I'm also a sucker for hand-painted animal faces, so this is pretty much the best gift you could ever give me.

Seasonally appropriate and conveniently designed to hang on the edge of your cup! Win!

We have several trays like this in my home. Trays that are PERFECT for a romantic breakfast in bed. Have I ever found a lovely romantic breakfast in my bed? No. I have not. Though there was that one time I was really sick and got soup in bed. I guess that counts.

Brew yourself a dark, powerful cup of tea.

Another etiquette question: When one is at afternoon tea, how long should one wait before eating the cup?

A trillion years ago when I was a wee tot I had a mug with a little mouse in it who would pop his head out to say hello when I was about half done with my cocoa. I'm glad to see that there is a classy adult version now that I'm an ancient lady.
