Description: Tea is the perfect accompaniment to all the moments of our lives. Rest a teacup on the arm of a chair, and the balance of life immediately improves. Offer a cup of tea to an acquaintance, and discover a new friend.
This beautifully illustrated book celebrates the beloved beverage and offers more than 35 recipes for tea-related confections and parties including a wedding shower tea, Christmas tea, and tea party for children. Teatime can be anytime, anywhere: morning, afternoon, or evening, summer or winter, indoors or out, in the company of friends or in sweet solitude. Whatever your fancy, it is easy to bring tea into your life. Host a tea party (any excuse will do), display pretty teacups and teapots, hang teacup-patterned wallpaper.
The book also delves into the business of tea through interviews with the owner of a tea salon, a tea blender, and a tea grower.
Sprinkled throughout the book are little nuggets of wisdom about this ancient and fascinating drink.
