I have a new calendar for 2012 called
Sereni-Tea.
This is the cover of the calendar.
Published by Brush Dance, each month has a beautiful tea related photograph and quote.
"Tea is a treasure enjoyed by millions throughout the centuries.
Discover serenity, relaxation, and friendship day-by-day, cup-by-cup."
All of the Christmas trees and decorations are down and put away,
but I left out some of the Snow People.
It is winter!
Here's Mr. and Mrs. SnowMan with a tea-for-one by Tracy Porter.
I've talked about Tracy Porter before.
I love her designs and color.
Everything is so bright and fresh.
I was saddened to learn that she has gone out of business.
This tea for one was my last Tracy Porter purchase.
Great color.
Fun design.
A rose on the top of the teapot lid.
A surprise in the bottom of the cup.
I love the shape of the cup and believe me, it holds a lot of tea!
I've been reading Tea Bliss by Theresa Cheung and
thought I'd leave you with a few thoughts from her book.
"Savor the moment, says tea; appreciate me for what I am. Calm down and drink me; life is too precious to waste. Wait for me to steep, delight in my fragrance, and watch the steam rise from my cup. Appreciate your friends, or the silence reflecting your thoughts. When you are ready, take a sip, feel the glow of my sweet warmth, and make a wish."
Don't forget that January is Hot Tea Month!

Your snow couple is so cute. I keep my snowmen out as long as there is snow on the ground! Enjoyed seeing your teapot. I've never seen one like that.
Have a good week.

Your snow people are just adorable!
What a sweet tea-for-one. I love the surprise at the bottom, but most of all I think it must be a great little set because of the shape of the cup, which would keep the tea warm for a little longer than normal. I like my tea hot!

The Snow People look pleased with your new Tea for One, Snap. I often think of you when I brew my cup in the morning.
I love the quote about tea at the end of your post!! Isn't it wonderful what tea does to the body, mind & soul?? I didn't know that January is Tea Month. However, every month is tea month for me. Have a wonderful day! Hugs, Kitty
I like Tracy Porter's work too. Beautiful tea set! Have a great week.

Hi Snap,
Your tea for one is so sweet! It suggests a world of fantasy, so the funny snow people make good company for it.
Thanks for sharing and for your visit in my blog.
