Teatime - is every time!

I confess: I have a butler.

The only problem: it´s a wooden one :)

 Nonetheless I adore him, his name is Friday and he serves me my tea.

He was a gift for Eastern years ago...

Teatime for me is quite on any daytime and on any occasion. I drink Tea for Breakfast, for Lunch, for Dinner, when I feel sad, when I feel happy, when I feel stressed....

 So over the years I developped something like a teapotcollection and I use quite all of them. Ok some of the pots I use more often then others but also because some of them looks pretty good but are´nt very usefull as they drip horribly while serving the tea. But quite every Teapot has a little history....

This one is one of my oldest one. It was part of my wedding gifts...quite a long time ago... the Teapot remained always faithful... Unfortunately Rosenthal stopped to produce this decor and the number of my cups decreased over the time....

The white one is a classic designed from Gropius (one of the founder of the great Bauhaus).


I have also the black variant that I use rarely to not get in danger that it breaks...Silly! This danger is not given with the small iron teapot. The blue is beautiful in my opinion. But I also do not use it very often as he is very heavy..but cute, no? 

The hanging one seems impressively useful with the integrated teapot-warmer..still I am not conviced..and we´ve been together for a long time.. Instead the little pot with the treefoils is a gift from a friend of mine and I use it very often. She brought it from Ireland to say thank you as I was looking a little bit about her growned up childrens during her holidays...

The small glasspot is intended for teablossoms. They are quite expensive and I find their taste not so great..so he is also not often in use. Meanwhile the pot called Salam from Guy Degrenne is one of my quite daily used. It is a combination of a porcelaine pot with a steel cover lined with felt to maintain your tea hot..very tricky and useful!

So I could continue for a while because these is not my whole collection... But I have no more time. I have to make some Tea :)))
