Tea is naught but this:
First you heat the water,
Then you make the tea.
Then you drink it properly.
That is all you need to know.

It's my nighttime drink of choice - Darjeeling tea. Quote was spotted in a book I posted about here. Feeling like a peaceful, simple post this morning. Hugs!

Ahh! Thank you for passing these relaxing thoughts along : ) Our daughter served us raspberry iced tea. It was so good, I bought a box of Raspberry Zinger yesterday to make some myself.
I don't drink tea, haven't for years, but I like the quote and the photo! Have a wonderful weekend Lynn!
Love it.
And co-incidentally I am reading it with my first cup of tea of the day. Chai. Yum.
China black for me, please!

I almost always have a large mug of milk at night. :)
So lovely!
Tea is the most peaceful drink I can think of, for sure.
Earl Grey and Breakfast Tea--both black teas. Cannot see green teas, altho I have tried.
I like your head sculpture.
