"Earl Grey Tea"
Teableau for 07/01/26

I go through phases as to favorite teas. My Earl Grey phase lasted about a decade, to the exclusion of nearly every other kind.

"Golden"
Teableau for 05/31/26

A beautiful friend who brings much joy into my life sent me these cups & saucers. I think they're superb, and my friend is even more so. ❤️

"Razzamatazz"
Teableau for 05/30/26

The jam jar is from Knotts Berry Farm in Buena Park, California. I don't know if they still sell these in the gift shop, but a lot of people had them in their homes back in the day.

"Sunshiny"
Teableau for 04/30/26

I know it's a little early for sunflowers, but sunflowers are always a good time.

Teableau for 04/16/26

My favorite Cardamom black tea is from Sadaf, but Ahmad's, seen here, is also very good.

"Country Day"
Teableau for 04/13/26

This display happened because I acquired a sugar bowl patterned like a cow.

"Eventide"
Teableau for 03/27/26

I went with midnight blue for this one because I didn't assemble it until darkness fell.

"Strawberry Sensation"
Teableau for 03/15/26

A friend sent me this magazine. She's one of two friends with this "secondhand obsession" wherein they don't share my Lucy mania but will get excited on my behalf. ❤️

"Oops"
Teableau for 02/09/26

I think this vintage tea towel I'm using as a backdrop is pretty adorable.

"Oolong Has This Been Going On?"
Teableau for 01/26/26

This song by Ace is an earworm in my head today.

"And you said you was never intending
To break up our scene in this way
But there ain't any use in pretending
It could happen to us any day"

"Sunday Serenade"
Teableau for 01/25/26

An odd choice to show the dawn choristers when I slept most of the day, myself.

"623 East 68th Street"
Teableau for 11/21/25

I practically grew up in this apartment, which, if it really existed, would be in the middle of the East River.

"Township"
Teableau for 11/07/25

The little teapot is from Torquay, from a pottery collection that was typically sold to tourists, but I doubt it was found in any hotel giftshop of Basil Fawlty's.

"Embark"
Teableau for 08/15/25

A nice English Afternoon black tea suits me to a...er, a T... as it's more mellow than a breakfast tea.

"Small Wonders"
Teableau for 07/24/25

The pen & ink drawing is signed "Higashi '78". I think it's a very sweet picture.

"Beep Beep"
Teableau for 07/17/25

I do miss seeing roadrunners. When I lived in the semi-arid desert, they'd cross my path as I went to work, and they always, ALWAYS, had a lizard dangling from the beak. Poor lizards, but roadrunner gonna roadrunner.

"Into The West" Teableau for 05/27/25

The mug was originally white with an ugly corporate logo, on the Free shelf at a thriftshop. I brought it home and painted it.

Teapot, cup & saucer are Franciscan Ivy by Gladding McBean, designed by Mary Jane Winans in the 1940s.
