About Me

I’m a Brit in Texas who loves hot tea. I’m a newlywed of 22 years and blessed with 2 daughter and 2 dogs. I love to travel, sleep in when I get the chance and take the occasional pic or 2.

I have found many of life’s problems can be solved or joy’s celebrated in the kitchen over a cup of tea and a chat. Let’s have a conversation about life with some tips, how to’s and of course tea.

Let's put the kettle on.
