YOUR WORLD

Find yourself a cup of tea;
the teapot is behind you.
Now tell me about hundreds
 of things. 

~Saki

Numerous teas are being
made and sampled here
today.
Tell me, what is going
on in your world?
Tea...is a religion of the art of life. ~Okakura

  1. That looks yummy - I keep meaning to pick some hibiscus flowers out of the garden and dry them - do you just air dry your teas?

  2. Yesterday I had a kind of Japanese green tea that I've never tried before. It has a mellow peachy flavour and is called "Chun Mee' that literally translated means 'precious eyebrow'!

    I'm going into the garden to pick some lemon balm now to brew a pot and may experiment with baking too...

    Enjoy your tea sampling Tracey...

  4. Ohhh that's awesome! I never thought of making my own tea. What a great idea. Is there a book that you're using or just sampling different things?

  5. Love love love tea! But, I haven't really made my own besides chamomile or mint tea :-) I am hoping to get a lot more into tea making for medicinal purposes over the next several months!

  8. I had my oldest help me fill a gallon jar nearly full with my tea mix. He had a great time measuring out all the herbs. Because it's in a huge jar I just measure out a rough amount into my french press every morning - every day it tastes a little different. I love it. (:

  13. Love that first quote about teas & the picture. Tell me, Tracey, do you have a plethora of quote books? I don't know how you discover all these wonderful quotes. So how many teas did you sample? Just because or for a specific purpose?

  17. I'm not a tea drinker, but your photo almost makes me want to know what I am missing! Busy day today. Got Mother's Day gifts in the mail. Need to get on the cleaning soon but first taking a few minutes out to catch up with my new blogging friends.
