The Tea Party of Life

Making tea becomes second hand when you begin with the basics.  

1. Use fresh cold water
2. choose quality loose-leaf tea
3. warm the teapot with hot tap water
4. pour boiling water over the tea leaves
5. let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes
6. remove the tea leaves from the teapot, using a tea infuser or use a tea stainer and pour the tea into your cup – use a tea cozy to keep it hot.

Now that we are enjoying a cup of tea together, let me ask you a question?

What is your tea personality?

• A Teacup
• A Teapot
• A Teaspoon
• A Tea Cozy

I have had fun using the different personalities to create “The Tea Party of Life”.  See which tea accroutament you are!

• A teacup is a fun loving individual who is creative, enthusiastic, and loves to be around others, as seen by being with a saucer all the time! Talkative  (open top of the teacup) and transparent (put a teacup up to the light). Motivates others and is a great net worker.
• A teapot is a born leader, independent, organized and in control.  They have a “handle” on life, but have a tendency to be quick tempered “blow their lid” and very goal oriented.
• A teaspoon is easy going, patient and kind and wants to keep the peace at all costs.  The are good listeners, balanced and  most of the time very witty. The teaspoon is never heard while stirring the tea!
• A tea cozy is very detail oriented, neat and tidy, on time and very conscientious.  They like things to be perfect, thus the perfect one to keep the perfect cup of tea hot!

Each of us have a place in God’s kingdom.  We have traits, desires, goals and responsibilities to one another and to the Lord.  ”Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”  Esther 4:15

Might you be a blessing to someone today over a cup of tea?
