The bounty of my birthday this year included a box of terifically tasty loose leaf herb teas from Jessica. They're a real treat for the tongue, but also too pretty to hide. So instead of stuffing the little tins with spices I'm unlikely to use, buttons I won't sew back on, or beans that are better hydrated, I filled 'em with tea-to-be. The benefits of this little idea are three-fold:
1 • I get to finally make use of these little magnetic tins that I thought were nifty but have been empty for years.
2 • The comely teas Jessica selected for me get to make more of themselves than just satisfying sips.
3 • When my teas are easy to see, I actually use 'em!Sometimes the seemingly minute can be the most gratifying, yes?
Yes.
Ooooo. I love those. Too bad my kids would open them up when I'm not looking and spread them around the kitchen floor. Not fun. But someday...
ReplyDeleteI love tea. Love it. That is a lovely gift.
Look at you! I love it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea! I agree, those teas are too pretty to hide. I'm so glad you found a cool way to display them.
