A recent trip to Alburqueque for my nephew’s wedding found us strolling around Old Town. We had split up and were exploring on our own when a text came in from my sister.
“TEA SHOP! Come meet me! It’s really close to where you are right now.”
So of course I drug Chris to the tea shop Old Barrel Tea Company .
It was wonderful and that is a post for another day but trust me when I say I was in heaven. They had lovely samples of both hot and cold tea available and as I was looking around the shop I noticed several teapots that were fun and unique. I had not planned on buying one on this trip but my wonderful husband told me to pick one out.
I chose one that looked Southwestern and love the sturdiness of it.
The colors are true southwest colors and the pattern really makes this teapot pretty, don’ t you think?
I kept the card so I never forget this shop. They even do mail order so don’t forget to check them out if you are a tea and spice lover like I am .
Just look at that fun close up of the design that encircles the teapot.
All ready for a nice brew of fall tea. Stop on by and I will share.
Thanks for stopping by. Don’t forget to leave a comment and tell me what you think about my latest acquisition. All comments this month mean a $1 donation to UMCOR for Hurricane Irma relief.
“Tea drinking is a liturgy of comfort, and we partake of it everywhere in the world. It’s a ceremony of simplicity, nourishment for both the nomads in foreign teahouses and homebodies in their beds.”
