"Finnish-ing School" teableau for 04/30/25

The little vintage plate was made by Arabia Finland, depicting a traditional costume of Häme, Finland. There is a series of five of these dishes showing different areas of the country but I only have this one.

Happy Wednesday! I hope it’s off to a great start! :bunhdheart:

Today’s reminder is to make things comfy for you! Are you getting enough water, or are there ways to make it easier? Could adding a stool to the shower make the day start nicer? Or maybe a pillow for your chair? I hope you’ll have a more awesome day with all that extra support! :bunhdlurk:

Today’s tea is Assam milk tea, a comfy tea for a hopefully comfy day! What are you brewing up? :blobfoxflooftea:

Did I mention that I got a few new #tea infusers? My older main one mysteriously disappeared during a sweeping kitchen cleanup, I suspect accidentally into the garbage. Though I'm not buying stuff from Big River anymore if I can help it, I had a gift card; not using it would mean that Bezos gets the money without ever giving anything in return. So, three new infusers:
1. Nessie
2. Capybara with orange on its head, hangs over edge of cup
3. Collapsible one like a miniature colander. #TeaInfuser

Hi, I'm Karin 🙋🏽‍♀️, a tea lover from Austria. I am currently launching my own online tea shop🍵.

I don't believe that you need lots of fancy tools or your own zen garden to enjoy a tea ceremony. Instead, tea can give us much needed breaks on the spot, wherever we are, to find a way back to ourselves and open our eyes to the beauty surrounding us. That way, through tea, we start to see that our life itself can be made into a ceremony.

Join me on this journey! 😊💚

My partner took me out camping for the weekend. The cape is such a strange place. You can't throw a rock without smashing some potter's lively-hood, and I simultaneously deeply love a place that is so full of artisans, and also a bit hopeless, as they are all old and grey, and who will be able to afford to carry their torch when they pass?

In any case, three days with no news, podcasts, or internet, and I am having a hard time getting caught back up with the gish gallop of horrors that is day-to-day life now.

But below is a photo of our tent, which hysterically just barely fit my actual, full bed setup, and ably weathered a hell of a storm, and our tea set-up for the weekend.

Happy Tuesday! I hope it’s so much fun! :bunhdheart:

Today’s reminder is to check in on you and your needs! Are you covering the basics, and what brings you joy? Are there things you can do to make the week nicer, from getting appointments scheduled to checking on friends? It’s a good day to make sure the rest of the week shines! I’m rooting for you! :abunhdhappy:

Today’s tea is Assam milk tea, a comfy tea to start the day! What are you brewing up? :blobfoxflooftea:

Sleepy Monster in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip of two of freshly brewed sweetness. This sleepy creature drank a bit too much sweet jasmine tea and found it hard to stay awake. Shhhhhh...
