Teaccessories: Striking Teapots
In the last few weeks I’ve found these delightful teapots through Pinterest. They would be great conversation pieces, and pretty up any table.

Intersections: Churchmouse Yarn & Teas
If ever there was a store made for me, it is Churchmouse Yarn & Teas. I hope one day to be able to visit the store on scenic Bainbridge Island, just a short ferry ride from Seattle. But for now I’ll just watch, and drool from afar.

Drink Me: Upton Tea, Masala Chai
A few weeks ago, on Ravelry, I was part of an interesting discussion about Masala Chai. This discuss was primarily about how Americans refer to chai as chai tea. But the Hindi word for tea is chai, which makes the American version redundant. The correct name for the spiced tea that we Americans refer to… Continue reading Drink Me: Upton Tea, Masala Chai
