by Leave a Comment

The Rockurwok White Pearl Teapot, pictured here, is nothing short of gorgeous. I love the snow white color and am crazy about the brown accents.

  • High quality. 304 stainless steel, durable and not easy to get rust, heats fast, corrosion resistant. Coated with high-temperature paint, do not fade and easy to clean. This kettle whistles when water boils, to prevent from boiling over.
  • Thickened bottom. The bottom of this tea kettle consists of 3 layers, totally 0.2” thick. It is able to withstand higher temperatures, heats fast and evenly, more durable than other kettles
  • Slip & heat resistant handle. Both lid handle and C-type holding handle are anti-skid, heat-resistance and comfortable design. And the grip-open design makes it more convenient to open the spout, avoiding heating damage from steam. You can handle it with one hand, the spout can stay open until you close it by your thumb pressing it. Non-slip and safe to pour water.
  • Apply to various stovetops. Applicable for induction cooker, electric furnace, gas and natural gas stovetops.

I just realized how NOT READY I am for the Christmas season. I try to buy things for my family throughout the year and put into a special closet (the Christmas closet, if you will), but this year was… shall we say… a bit different.

Michael Graves’ Legendary Bird Whistle Kettle

by Leave a Comment

A while back, I was discussing tea and teakettles (a couple of my favorite subjects) with someone and the subject of Michael Graves’ iconic Bird Whistle Kettle came up. It occurred to me that I’ve never written about it on my tea blog.

Who am I, anyway?! 

Here it is, arguably the most famous kettle of our time and I’ve never even mentioned it once.  We’d better right that wrong immediately.

The adorable Bird Whistle Kettle was designed in the 1980s by Michael Graves. The stainless steel kettle features a moulded plastic bird that makes kettle whistle. With sells counting over 100,000 a year, this is one beloved kettle.

Features:

  • A beautiful little bird adorns the spout of this kettle and whistles when contents boil
  • Designed in 1985 by Michael Graves; crafted with an 18/10 stainless-steel body
  • Handle and whistle in durable PA resin; choose from blue or ivory handles
  • Wider base lets water boil more quickly, making it a favorite for busy, modern-day users
  • Measures 8-1/2 inches in diameter and 9 inches high; hand wash only; both whistling bird and lid can be replaced

See  Bird Whistle Kettle on Amazon for more information.


Gorgeous Black Teakettle: Ooooh La La!

by

Black is one of the most popular colors for the kitchen – my own appliances are shiny black and I wouldn’t dream of having another color. I also love the look of black dishes on a table, black pans filled with deliciousness, and a black tea kettle letting off steam.

The Black Tea Kettle pictured above is the Circulon Teakettles Morning Bird Teakettle and she’s a beauty. While she is, of course, available in a wide array of colors, I think she’s especially dramatic in black.

  • Generous 2-quart steel teakettle capacity heats up to 8 cups of water
  • Textured teakettle handle with squeeze-and-pour spout lever; stainless steel lid seals tight
  • The sleek colored enamel exterior is stain resistant and easy to clean
  • The teakettle’s convenient whistling feature signals when water is at a boil
  • Lifetime limited warranty
  • Other Colors: Rhubarb Red, Mustard Yellow, Mandarin Orange, Circulon Red, Kiwi Green, and Capri Turquoise

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.

Purple Tea Kettles: Shiny, Stainless Steel, and Oh So Sweet

by Leave a Comment

Purple Tea Kettle

Almost everyone has a favorite color, but some people have a color they’re so obsessed with that when family and friends SEE the color, they think of them. This is definitely the case with me an purple. A few days ago, I tried to remember when my purple obsession began and I’m pretty certain it was before I could even walk. I remember a purple dress in the 3rd grade that my mom had to bribe me not to wear more than once a week to school.

I was aiming for 4 times a week. Actually, she didn’t bribe me… she just bought me more purple. Make no mistake about it, there are perks to being an only child.

Needless to say, I’m completely in love with the gorgeous, shiny, purple-licious beauty shown above. This is the Purple Stainless Steel Shiny Tea Kettle and I’m pretty wild about it.

  • Stay-cool handle and lid handle
  • Stay-open flip-spout to avoid steam burns while pouring
  • Two-stage whistle will get your attention for safety
  • Solid stainless-steel construction w/aluminum, dual-layer chamber on the bottom for even heating
  • 2.8 quarts large capacity, usable on gas or electric stoves

I just can’t make up my mind if the one above is my favorite – or if I’d rather have one of the ones below. They’re all gorgeous!

Speaking of purple, I had a life-changing realization earlier. My husband isn’t going to like this because things could escalate quickly, but I discovered something on Amazon called the Purple Store.

Be. Still. My. Purple-loving. Heart.

There are purple shoes, purple earrings, purple dishes, purple laptop bags… even a purple Stuffed “Psychic Rat”. Not sure what his deal is, but he’s a lovely color.

Click through any of the links or pics for a closer look – and, if you’re a purple fanatic (or need a gift for someone who is!), be sure to check out the Purple Store.

Say “Hi” to the purple psychic rat for me.
