For the Love of Blue and Pink

There is an old saying - good tea deserves a smart teapot, and people use pretty kettles to justify this saying. It is easy to get attracted to fine ceramic ware but getting hooked to blue ceramic ware is a special sort of love for many & I am no exception to it. This kettle was picked up at the first glance for its attractive irregular handle, its incredible intricate design & colour.

The colour Blue along with colour Pink is a great combination & along with some of my other blue table ware mixed in, both colours are used to give a tea scape of this nature, on a sunny day.

This Chinese porcelain tea pot has its own beauty and charm and can be used as a vase, if you take the lid off.

The beautiful pink flowers in bloom were picked up from the garden and went well with the scape. The Ixora flowers found in the tropical countries of the world, produce large clusters of tiny flowers in the summer with shades of white, deep red, pink, pale orange and yellow & they attract numerous butterflies and bees for the store of nectar in them

    1. Thanks for the advice Kathleen. I wasn't too sure, as to how to solve the problem, and it took me a while to figure it out. I have set the word verification option to 'No' in settings. Hope it works fine now.

      & Thank you for the lovely comment too :)

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M...

Coffee in the Bedroom

The bedroom, the place where we spend one-third of our life, is a special place indeed and it holds all the beautiful possibilities that we wake up to early in the morning. Enjoying coffee in bed along with reading the newspaper is something one looks forward to & it is a wonderful feeling after a hard days work too. Like many I love the smell and taste of coffee made from a Peculator, and it is also easy and quick to prepare coffee with. Having coffee in bed, along with breakfast on a Sunday morning makes you feel fresh, something that every heart would wish for. Presenting a coffee scape from my bedroom on an early Sunday morning & enjoy your cuppa. Please do visit Cusine Kathleen Please do visit A Delightsome LIfe
