A Cup of Tea
"It is curious how a cup of tea can be refreshing even on a warm day such as this - a mystery, really - but there you have it."
~ Mohsin Hamid in The Reluctant FundamentalistOn our recent trip to the UK, I ODed on tea, in spite of the heat-wave we were fortunate to experience. It was such a joy to have tea readily available everywhere. Truly a haven for tea lovers.

Lovely pictures! Makes the tea look even more appetizing! :) We have perfect weather for tea right now, gloomy, cool and perfect for tea and some reading!
We have the perfect weather as well in Jersey for tea. I love the idea of drinking tea from a cup with a saucer rather than in a disposable mug on the run.
