Tea for Me

Purple pot

I do it every morning.  Using this funny little tea pot with the broken handle loop is part of my morning routine.  The pot holds enough to satisfy me and to maximize the tea bag.  Perfect all around.

A puff of steam escapes the top of the pot 

Rituals can be very helpful--I always know at least one of the Things I get to do today--adding security and stability and good flavor to the beginning of every day.





If it's a chilly morning, I pour my cup and place it on the left side of my plate.  The pot stays on the right. Between bites there's a place to get both hands warmed back into comfort.  With the hot liquid in the belly and hands toasty, the day is off to a smart start.
