    tea cups

    “Drinking a daily cup of tea will surely starve the apothecary,” is the sound reasoning in a Chinese proverb while another ancient saying declares, “Better to be deprived of food for three days than tea for one.” According to this Japanese proclaimation, “If man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty.”

      Almost a reigious experience. Hot water – dunk in teabag, milk and sugar – stir!
