Spring shopping: Tea things I am coveting
Cooking Light magazine has a fairly new feature near the front called "The Editor's Dozen," spotlighting 12 nifty items, books, ingredients, what have you that have impressed the staff or at least piqued their curiosity. This month's edition just happens to be loaded with several really cool, tea-related things ...
Like beautiful graphic tea towels from Studio Patro (check out the web site, great design, cool stuff) ...
The prints include bold leaves, variations on the letter T, peace symbols, the word "wanderlust" and more. Gimme, gimme!
I'm also in love with this Martha Stewart dinnerware, Hudson and Classic Band mix-and-match available at Macy's, including nicely weighted mugs and saucers ...
(Word of warning: Martha has recalled some of her teapots.)
And finally, here's my pick from the cool line of lacquer serving trays designed by Pacific Connections ...
They have a few dozen designs, including a bolder Mondrian pattern, but I like the softer pastels of this urban flair.
The magazine feature also included some artfully photographed matcha tea powder, hawking one of the $69 five-piece sets from matchasource.com (great starter kit or gift) ...
