MiMi Mug

 

What is it about grandparents?? We LOVE letting the world know about our grandbabies and grandchildren! Seriously, we all but announce it to everyone we meet.

“Hi… How are you doing? I have a grandbaby and he’s 18 months old. He is so adorable and rotten and…” 

Surely it’s not just me. Just kidding – I know it’s not!

The beautiful burton + BURTON mug above is one of my favorite Mother’s Day gifts. Somehow, my Chai Tea Lattes just taste better out of it than other mugs. Don’t ask why. My daughter bought if for me in a local store, but there are a lot of burton + BURTON mugs on Amazon. They also have other “names” than MiMi (that just happens to be the name the adorable and rotten 18 month old knows me by).

There are also mugs for parents, grandfathers, and other walks of life. They’re all super gorgeous. Click any of the links to see the beauties.

And… say… have I told you about my grandbaby? He’s 18 months old….

Peacock Teapot and Mug Set (Gorgeous!)

by Leave a Comment

Ever have something sneak up on you – something you’d never really thought a great deal about and then suddenly, you love it with ever fiber of your being?

That’s my relationship with peacocks, to a tee.. or to a feather. I’ve always been a huge animal and bird lover – and I mean HUGE – but peacocks weren’t any more or less on my radar than any other bird.

Then I saw a few up close, in person, and they are a complete an utter obsession now. They’re just spectacular and I’m not sure how I ever got along without them. If you’re as crazy about peacocks as I am (or if you simply love beautiful teapots and uncommonly beautiful teacups), you’re going to be as wild about this Peacock Teapot and Teacup Set as I am.

This gorgeous set includes 6 teacups, 6 saucers, 6 spoons (too cute!), 1 beautiful sugar bowl, 1 fancy milk cup, and 1 Teapot

From Amazon:

  • Porcelain surface delicate and smooth, easy to clean, noble and elegant.
  • Meet time,Space-time conversion,Classical inheritance,We are good intentions of each piece of porcelain
  • Lead free quality, long service life, and never fade
  • Microwave and dishwasher safe for your convenience

They’re available in many different colors but my personal favorites are the blues and the green and setgreen (shown). If you have tea lovers on your Christmas list, this would be a gift they’ll talk about all year long!

After all, as all tea lovers know, it’s as much about the experience as it is the tea, itself.

Christmas in July: Spode Christmas Tree Pitcher, Glasses, and Mugs (Yes to ALL!)

by Leave a Comment

I’ll just go ahead and admit it – I’m one of “those” people. The ones who think about, talk about, and plan for Thanksgiving and Christmas all year. In fact, I plan to start testing out a few new dressing recipes this week.

I don’t think my husband will mind!

The gorgeous glasses, mugs, and pitcher pictured in this post have me ready to do some serious shopping for the Christmas season. These are just so beautiful I can’t stand it. The Spode Christmas designs are deliciously warm and wonderful throwbacks to good old-fashioned Christmases. Look at the ornaments on the tree on the pitcher & mug below – they’re just wonderfully vintage-looking.

The Spode Christmas Tree Glass Pitcher is the first thing I plan to order. This 96-ounce glass pitcher was introduced in 2006 and would make a gorgeous gift (for keeping or giving). It comes gift-boxed in Spode’s signature red packaging. In addition to being ridiculously beautiful, this pitcher is dishwasher safe – meaning I love it even more.

The Spode Christmas Tree Red Stem Glasses (above) were introduced in 2015. Each goblet has a 18 oz. capacity. They’re a little more exquisite, so they require hand-washing… they’re worth it though!

The Spode Christmas Tree Glasses (above) also come with a recommendation for “Hand Washing” and they, too, are very much worth it. These beauties are crafted of clear glass and have 22-karat gold trims. Gorgeous!

Last, but far from least, is the Spode Christmas Tree Mug (set of 4). I love these mugs – not only is the Christmas image on the front absolutely precious, there’s even a little extra loveliness inside the mug. This extra touch just sends it over the top for me. I love it. The high-quality porcelain earthenware is dishwasher and even microwave safe.

I’m picturing a lot of hot tea, cocoa, and coffee served in these gorgeous mugs.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I love this beautiful Perfectea Glass Tea Mug – well, I guess that’s a lie, I could begin to tell you… but I might not be able to stop telling you.

This beauty has the Teavana logo on one side and one of four quotes on the Teavana lifestyle on the other.  It’d make a gorgeous gift idea for any tea lover in your life.

The mug fits perfectly under the Perfectea Makers.

Top 10 Gift Ideas for Tea Lovers

Rachael Ray Orange Tea Kettle

Rachael Ray Orange Whistling Tea Kettle

I love the tea lovers in my life. Not only do they show remarkably good taste in their favorite drink, they’re incredibly easy to shop for. Whether it’s Christmas, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, anniversaries, or birthdays, you always know the way to a tea lover’s heart – through their tea cup!

Below are the Top 10 Gift Ideas for Tea Lovers, according to The Crazy Tea Chick.  You simply cannot go wrong with any of these.

 

1. The Bonavita Digital Electric Gooseneck Kettle. (pictured above) This beauty takes the guesswork out of brewing the best tea you ever had in your life. Easy to use, handsome to look at, and (quite frankly), one of the things in my kitchen I value the most. You can read my Bonavita Digital Kettle Review or simply click here to see it on Amazon.

2. Gorgeous! The Bormioli Rocco Murano Cobalt Blue Glasses (pictured above) are some of the most beautiful tea glasses I’ve ever laid my tea loving peepers on. They’re sold in a set of 4 and would make a perfect gift idea.

3. Back to back tea glasses? Why the heck not? The one pictured above is also sold in a set of four and is the very definition of eye-catching. These are the Bormioli Rocco Sorgente Double Old Fashioned Glasses and I’m obsessed with everything about them.

4. The Bamboo Matcha Tea Set, pictured above, is a best seller on Amazon – making me one of MANY who use it daily. Packaged along with some great matcha (see below!), this would be a gift your tea lover will use for years.

5. Matcha! Whether you gift it along with a set of beautiful mugs, a Bamboo Matcha Tea Set, a teapot, or all by itself, DoMatcha Organic Matcha is as good as it gets for making outstanding matcha at home.

6. I don’t have my review of the Hario Chacha Kyusu Maru Tea Pot on Crazy Tea Chick yet, but I wouldn’t take anything for mine. It’s beautiful and insanely useful for making fresh brewed tea. It comes in a sturdy box, perfect for gift wrapping and any tea lover will cherish it as much as I do mine.

 7.  If you’ve ever read my food blog (or walked into my kitchen), you’d know one thing for certain – I’m pretty infatuated with all things Rachael Ray. Cookbooks, pans, dishes, kitchen gadgets – the works. There’s something about the fun, upbeat, vibe all Rachael Ray products put off that resonate with me. So, basically I surround myself with them and resonate away. Naturally I have one of her Whistling Teakettles – I mean, how could I not? Mine is orange (like the one shown at the top of the post) and it’s used so frequently, it has a permanent resting place on the stove. This perfect whistling tea kettle is also available in Blue and Red.

 8. The Ozeri Serafino Double Wall Insulated Glasses, pictured above, are perfect for tea and/or coffee lovers. As someone who answers immediately to both, I’m more than a little crazy about them. The beauties are sold in sets of four and are just gorgeous.

9. Fun Tea Kettles (like the zebra shown above) make great gift ideas for the tea lover in your life. Other tea kettles with tons of personality are shown on the side — they include a rooster, bee hive, giraffe, and cow. So cute.

Firepot Nomadic Teas
10. There’s a such thing as saving the best for last and that’s what we have here – because what better gift for a tea lover than the very thing they’re in love with… tea, itself?!?!  When a tea lover is introduced to great new tea companies, it’s like a kid walking through the gates at Disneyland.

A whole new world opens up!

Whether you add a few boxes to a gift bag, use them as the basis for a gift box, or stuff some into a stocking, great quality loose leaf tea is THE perfect gift for tea lovers in your life.

I 110 percent recommend that you visit the two tea companies below and do a little shopping. I’ve had dealings with each and promise you that you’ll be blown away. I’ve written tea reviews for several of their teas on Crazy Tea Chick and have quite a few more scheduled to publish in the coming days.  Everything they offer is perfection. When you place your order….  be sure to order some for yourself. Trust me.

  1. Firepot Nomadic Teas (if you have chai tea lovers on your list, you’ll definitely want to order their Masala Chai Tea Concentrate – it makes wonderful chai tea lattes)
  2. Pahadi Tea (according to their website, there’s currently a free shipping deal going on!)

BONUS Tea Gift Idea:

Tea Time by Francis Amalfi

Tea Time is a perfect book for tea lovers. Read my Tea Time Review or simply hurry over to Amazon to buy the book. Filled with tea facts, history, legends, tales, and countless tea recipes – any tea drinker will love this beautiful book.

BONUS Gift Idea for Tea and Coffee Lovers:

When it comes to making Chai Tea Lattes, London Fogs (latte made with Earl Grey tea), and coffee-based lattes, the Breville Milk Café Milk Frother is essential – as in, it’d be nuts to try to live the latte life without one. Click through the link for more information.

Republic of Tea Get Relaxed Herb Tea

The Republic of Tea Get Relaxed Herb Tea

My husband gave me an adorable tea gift set not long ago (pictured above) from Republic of Tea. The purple mug and accompanying infuser came with the tea and all but stole the show. (To see the mug, click here. All of the other links in this post lead to the tea, itself.)

While I was immediately infatuated with the little mug (perfect for enjoying a cup of relaxing tea in the evening), I was also anxious to try the herbal tea. Republic of Tea only knows how to make one kind of tea – Awesome – so I knew I was in for something special.

There’s really nothing quite like a relaxing cup of hot tea in the evening and I have to say, the  Republic of Tea: Get Relaxed Herb Tea  is incredibly relaxing. You can just feel the activities of the day fade away as the only thing left is a more relaxed version of yourself enjoying a delicious cup of tea.

While I, personally, don’t suffer from any type of anxiety or stress,  I was amazed by some of the reviews I’ve read for Republic of Tea: Get Relaxed Herb Tea – a lot of people who DO have anxiety attacks and stress-related problems credit this tea with helping them a great deal.

A natural relief to unsettling ailments?  It doesn’t get much better than that.

I’ve also found that this tasty tea is great for those nights when you have trouble getting to sleep. It helps you unwind and drift into a beautifully relaxed state of mind…. and sleep isn’t far behind!
