The Art of Tea

January 15, 2013 by Barb 31 Comments

… make sure you heat the teapot first …
… add the tea …

… let steep for five minutes …
… pour into simple cup …
… breathe in the winter spice scent …
… enjoy …

Ah, yes… we must be able to laugh at ourselves… this is the revised version!

I’m moving my little blog over to WordPress. It should be finished sometime this week. I understand that if you are following me, you will still see me in Google Reader. But if you don’t see me for a while, check me out on Google+ for updates and maybe you can find your way back to my blog and I to yours.

I have a Google+ Followers Gadget on my sidebar (not the same as Google Friend Connect) if you want to follow me there. I follow back!

    Lovely shot, I just love those shredded wheat shot. Everytime I see it, it does remind me of the cereal.

    Love your photo! Laughed so hard at your edit of “f art” I almost spit out the water I was drinking at the time. Laughter is good medicine–thanks.

    That is too funny Barb ~ “fart” ~ once you pointed it out it is all I saw. I love your header ~ I have meant to comment before but just looked at that big mug of cocoa again with the marshmallows. Hope you are keeping warm out west.
