Tea for Three
A little while ago I wrote on article on tea for two, and since then I have ended up hosting tea for three people a few times. Tea for two is a fairly straightforward undertaking, but somehow I find tea for three can become unduly complicated. Maybe it’s that it’s harder for three people to… Continue reading

It’s everywhere — in commercials on TV and radio, in billboards, as a topic of conversation at a party… Continue reading

Easter Teatime Hop-Along
Drinking tea and hopping would not, at first glance, seem like two activities that could be engaged in simultaneously. Well, actually, even at second, third, fourth, or fifth glance.

Luck of the Irish
This Wednesday is St. Patrick’s Day, that green-tinted day upon which all Americans have a bit of Irish blood in them no matter which continent their ancestors hailed from. Green beer will be poured out in copious quantities between now and then, but I propose a more civilized way to celebrate the occasion. A shamrock… Continue reading

Tea and Gluten-Free Muffins
I decided mid-morning to give lessons in enjoying teatime to my three-year-old grandson. I had found no advice to aid me in this endeavor — I did actually look around on the web.
