“Books! The Best Weapons in the World” & Favorite Tea Books


Team Oolong

“Books! The Best Weapons in the World” & Favorite Tea Books

“You want weapons? We’re in a library! Books! The best weapons in the world!”
— The Doctor, Season 2, Episode 2

Books are so empowering…in so many ways and in ways that sometimes surprise me.  Books about tea are quite varied in concept and  in content.  I have learned so much about tea from books and have been blessed to have been gifted many unusual ones from friends and family.
I decided to gather some of them to look through today so I put them on the antique Georgian revolving Jefferson tea table. 


 


The Tardis is pouring “Bohea” a lightly smoked black tea from The Jefferson Monticello gift shop, a gift from friend Mary Jane.  The English tea trio is the oldest one in my collection dating to the early 1800’s near the year of Jefferson’s death.

Our tea treat today are little Tortilla book tea sandwiches .


Won’t you join me with a cup of tea and pause to tell us what your favorite tea book is?

Cheers and Happy Sipping!
Martha  (look in comments for one of my favorites where you can add yours too)
