This is Not the Tea-for-One You’re Looking For

Or is it? Actually, I’m pretty sure this is the tea-for-one I’m looking for.

Seriously. I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love LennyMud‘s stuff on Etsy. Someday, I’ll get myself a boatload of her awesome stuff. I just need to wait until I have spare money and slightly less debt…

May the Haiku Challenge Begin!

I’m not so great at
being witty in verse. Your
turn to show me up!

Yes, I’m challenging
readers, poets, and writers
to make me the fool.

Choose your wording well.
All I ask is a vaguely
tea-related verse.

Even though it’s gone,
I can’t help but admire
teaspoonandpetals.

Indulge serenity
with a steaming hot cuppa.
Fresh for the tasting.

Oh My God! I’m Panicking! What Do I Do?

Do you ever have those days when nothing seems to be going the way you hoped? Days where every tiny possible thing that could go wrong does? Days where that final straw just touched your very own camel back and suddenly you’re in full on panic mode?

In times like these, I like to do just as Purrrfect Pendants over at Etsy would have me do – keep mother-fucking calm and drink some damn tea (I may have taken some creative liberties with that).

I Know I Always Wanted a Blind Stalker

Am I the only one who is even a little jealous of Lionel Richie for having such a smoking hot blind stalker in his music video for ‘Hello’? The one thing I’ve never quite understood was how she had such a majestic intuition to be able to sculpt his mulleted head so perfectly without laying eyes or hands on him. All she ever heard was his voice.

Yes, I do understand that it’s supposed to be this whole big thing about how they’re so meant for each other that even though she has never seen him, she is so powerfully drawn to him that she somehow knows what he looks like perfectly and can sculpt a surprisingly accurate bust of him in art class. (Please pardon that extremely long sentence.) But still. I still think she should have just walked on up to him and said,

“Hello. Is it TEA you’re looking for?” Because then he could have said, “Yes, baby. I’ve been stalking you in return. Let’s live together forever – just you, me, and my majestic mustache.”

Unfortunately, LennyMud over at Etsy just made a Tea for One with Lionel Richie, so it looks like he’s destined to stay alone…

OR IS HE? Watch the video yourself and see!

Bring On Mrs. Potts!

Growing up, Beauty and the Beast was my favorite Disney movie. I loved that Belle was a book nerd (much like myself) and that she seriously was okay with choosing her own path. Of all the characters in the story, Chip was one of my favorites for his innocent spunk. His mother, Mrs. Potts, never really seemed to make a lot of sense to me, I guess. However, as I’ve grown older, I’ve come to really enjoy her as a character for her motherly love and guidance throughout it all.

On a side note, I went out for this past New Years’ Eve with some friends and, at a Target near the club we were going to, I found the perfect final accessory for my outfit… a headband beret. Yes. You read that right. It’s like a mini-beret on a headband! And it is glorious.

So, to continue that glory, I present to you an item that I would love to have – the Tea Pot Headband from youcute on Etsy!

You can find this adorable accessory right here!

I Pity the Fool Who Doesn’t Drink Tea!

I’m the first to admit I’m not quite old enough to have grown up watching the A-Team. Despite this, I have always known who Mr. T was and how he had a tendency to “Pity the foo’!” A family friend even had a classic Mr. T action figure (it’s not a doll!) that he would take pictures of with people he was acquainted with. Here’s one of those shots with myself and all of my brothers (he’s the wee little one in the middle):

Today’s Monday NovelTea has two items. Unfortunately for myself and the rest of the world (tea drinking or otherwise), the first one is only available in the UK at a bit of a high cost and the other one isn’t available any longer! So I invite you now to behold the glory that is Mr. Tea!

Above is the limited edition Mr. Tea. Lunartik, who created Mr. Tea, also has a line of other pretty awesome tea items, so definitely check this out!

The Mr. T Tea for One is found in the Etsy shop of Lennymud. Unfortunately it’s been sold, but Lennymud has recently re-opened shop with a number of other items, some Mr. Tea related!
