On Being the Bringer of Tea

Inspired by the lovely [livejournal.com profile] ishottheserif, may I present a photo of me and my stash:



Be very afraid!

mmmmmm tea!!!

I discovered somewhere that sold the tea i drink regularly (Twinings Assam) as loose leaf tea - and it was £1.15 for the leaf tea (when the same weight in tea bags is £2.30 or something)!

Shocking!

Shocking indeed! Leaf is clearly the way forward, with a nice Bodum teapot!

Bodum teapot? haven't stumbled across one of those yet! i've just got one of those "insert tea leaves into wierd clasping ball device and soak" things and a "teapot for one (haha look at you you lonely single person)"

They're glass and have a central plunger thing to prevent stewing while not needing a device to catch the leaves. They also don't drip!
