*raises hand* question! Can we have teapots in the photos we take, or no? Do teapots even count?

Hello Mageling!
You may include a teapot as long as a tea drinking vessel (teacup, mug, etc.) is still the focal point of your picture. [:)] |
Here's my entry. I
It's always time for a teacup photo! Username: Vanora Image/link: Link Caption (optional): Tea is always good during Winter~! I hope I did this right. |
Thank you for our first entry Vanora!
Ooh, I don't think I've ever seen a cardinal teaset. |
Yay!
It was a gift from me to my sister a few Christmas' ago. I bought it at a Family Dollar. [oops] This Christmas, I want to get her a "real" tea set from Teavana. ^^; |
Oh drat! My boyfriend's got the camera at his job still. I need to get that back before the event ends!
|
I took the picture with my phone. >.< Hence why the quality isn't all that great, haha.
|
I think the quality is really good. My phone's too old to take pictures.
Just gotta wait on that camera... |
I've heard about Teavana but I don't think we have them here.
Hope you get that camera, Uzura! You can always show off your teacup design skills in the meantime. [;)] |
Teavana...We have one about 30-40 min away. Such yummy tea. And I love their tea sets.
|
Oh I see.
You could make post-it notes to remind you about the camera`~ They have amazing tea, my favorite is the samura chai, I think. Hot or cold, it tastes really good. And their teasets are soo cute! |
I think the main tea shop I know is Whittard of Chelsea (most people seem to call it Whittard's though).
I'm not a massive fan of chai. The last tea I bought was a bag of Spearmint Gunpowder at a local market. I like watching the leaves unfurl. [lol] |
I like the spiciness to it I think. It's not too sweet and that's what I like about it. >.<
Then again, I'm not too smart about tea... I honestly know close to nothing about them... |
Heh, I don't particularly like a lot of cinnamon in things. Black teas tend to be more bitter if you don't like sweet flavours.
|
I don't think I've had black teas. o^o
I like cinnamon, but in mild doses. Haha. I once had cinnamon pancakes... never again. I can't eat them anymore without getting sick to my stomach. |
It's always time for a teacup photo!

I'm a black and oolong fan myself. I like a white tea in the morning though.
