Like you, I've never been an herbal tea lover, but lately I've tried to branch out, avoiding caffeine :( They don't all have to taste "grassy," I guess! That's a very cool gadget, and it makes having tea more fun. You're right that the ritual of making tea is an important part of the fun.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-83274523876132649152016-06-03T22:13:12.962-04:002016-06-03T22:13:12.962-04:00What a neat little gadget that is!

Like you, I agree that the difference in the color of the thread makes it quite unique! And of course, your teacup and saucer is just stunning and I see that it came from Judith! :) Enjoy your weekend, Deborah!Debby Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499542865677173703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-15290097511221643972016-06-01T20:45:50.507-04:002016-06-01T20:45:50.507-04:00I'm happy to see you using the teacup I sent a...I'm happy to see you using the teacup I sent and I've had one of those tea steepers from David's Tea for a couple of years. Hmm, wonder where it got to? I often run the water through our Keurig to steep the tea in it rather than boil the kettle.<br />I like the light blue nail polish, definitely a colour I'd try. ;-)Judith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-32948470098051238952016-06-01T12:03:36.865-04:002016-06-01T12:03:36.865-04:00What a lovely post.

They indeed managed to graciously do with so much less and from their golden hands, little miracles evolved... A true treasure and perfect for tea-time-pondering about what's really important in life.<br />This herbal tea ritual might be a great thing for having better sleeping time during the night.<br />I myself am amazed at how tight I can sleep since I've taken up daily biking, together with Pieter! My legs get toned and I'm feeling so much better. Still working on lowering my night-time blood pressure as I'm still to hyper it seems... <br />Sending you hugs,<br />Mariette<br /><br />We were so proud of Hillsdale College what they showed on Memorial Day!Mariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-72507402435932843142016-05-31T09:17:23.040-04:002016-05-31T09:17:23.040-04:00What a nifty little tea maker!

The vintage tablecloth is a lovely treasure to have and the cup and saucer looks so pretty on it. So happy to have you join me this week, Deborah. Hope you have a delightful week and I hope you're sleeping better too, my friend.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Sandi Sandi@ Rose Chintz Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415214311003251398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-50145162578008274682016-05-31T08:46:35.645-04:002016-05-31T08:46:35.645-04:00What a delightful post to start my day!
