Arrr!

I really wish Adagio would get in a new supply of Assam Melody so we could order our tea! Arrrrr.

That is all.

And the answer is...

Adagio is currently out of Assam Melody, which why we can order our tea yet. As soon as they get a new shipment, we're good to go.

And I'm a little too excited about the label. And hell no, I'm not making a video on my own. Although I could try to put an eyepatch on the cat and make that the video. There will be blood.

Tea!!!


I have in my possession 52 Teacups... and I am sure I am missing at least one... which I shall search for in the storage space at a later date...
I will work on an illustration for "Arrrrrrrr" after lunch today.
(today is especially earmarked for a very special lunch with estranged aunt and great aunt... it should be a lot of laughs...)
I'm afraid the video is up to you... unless of course you'd like it to consist of a neurotic hairless cat and Orff's Carmina Burina.
Check your eVites, Missy!

I have created our tea!

Alas, I am unable to order it immediately. (I e-mailed them to see why - I suspect there is some kind of turnaround time on new blends? Who knows.) That being said, they offer us the opportunity to create a video to promote our tea. This could be genius and/or craptacular, therefore I think we should totally do it.

Oh, and the label needs to be 700 x 300 pixels. I'll try to crank a couple of the photos below into that size, but of course it would be MUCH cooler if you wanted to draw something of your own!

Lady Carlyle

Royal Doulton's Lady Carlyle is just about the girliest tea cup ever... It's SO pink and SO pretty.

Pirate Tea!

Arrrrrrr!
That's my vote.
Here are some general designs... of course... I'd like to draw it myself... or else use a vintage image...

The much delayed conclusion...

Yes, yes, this has been looking as though it's B's tea blog for a while. A sucks. There have been far, far too many words in her life recently. Thanks, work.

That being said, I still wanna create our tea! I vote for this:

Assam Melody: 50%
Rum: 30%
Spice: 20%

I find it only appropriate that we then give this tea a pirate name, because pirates make everything better.

Vote for:

A) Yo ho hos!
B) Arrrrr!
C) Hey there, sailor!
D) Johnny Depp!


Please advise. And figure out a picture that we can upload to the label.


Arrrr,
A
