The Silver Teapot
I am completely addicted to tea. After spending most of the summer gulping down various green teas (the lime being my favorite), I am now hooked chi spice black tea and ginger lemon twist. Both are delish! Due to this relatively new preoccupation, I decided what I needed was a tea pot. My last one broke years ago and I had never replaced it. Anyway, I was in a little store a while back and came across a silver tea pot exactly like my grandmother had. It’s not fancy or terribly pretty. It’s a squat little thing with a long spout and wood handle, but my Nana’a always brewed a mean pot of tea. And to my delight, it only cost twenty-five bucks. (Unpublished writer=broke most of the time.) Obviously, I bought the little tea pot and made it mine. My Nana died two years ago. We were close and I miss her very much, but I’m not by nature a sentimental person. So it’s interesting to me how something as simple as plain silver tea pot can make feel oddly comforted. Why analyze? I think I’ll just sit back, think of Nana and enjoy my tea.
