In Like a Lion...


How much more snow will we get, I wonder? We’re still looking for green, floral and springy decor for the tea store even though there’s like 8 inches of snow on the ground. I keep treasures stashed away for seasonal decor and it’s fun to go through the box and find the treasures for that season-shamrock plates and bowls and a cool serving platter from Johnson Brothers. All of our green teas are $1.00 off in March. We have Harney & Sons organic green, Japanese Sencha, English Tea Store granny green apple green tea & Bohemian Raspberry-and our private label blends of jasmine green, moroccan mint and gunpowder. We’re getting ready for the progressive dinner and artists showcase next Saturday. Artistic jewelry by Diane’s Designs will be on display on live models in three stores, the Tea Store, Borderlands Trader and New Voices Books-stores near ours. In the evening, the three of us are hosting an invite only private event, with dinner at Borderlands, tea and cookies (possibly a chai tea latte and ginger cookies) and desert at New Voices Books. Our hours are changed slightly in March: 12:30-5:30pm M-F and 10-2 on Saturdays. Tea Man is recovering from surgery and should be back in the store on the 12th or so. He’s doing great-can’t have caffeine so he’s enjoying decaf earl grey from Marketspice and decaf Typhoo. We’ll have free cuppa tea on Pete’s bday, 3/30, come in and say hi.
