Put The Kettle On



 _________________________________


Everyone has a word path. One word leads to another.

Word Paths, a Friday feature showcasing possibilities in written words, creative process and artistic pieces. 
My goal is to present three to five words or three to five lines. 
I may go to seven words or seven lines but probably not often, only if needed. 
I plan to work the Word Paths out artistically and process them to share with you here. 
You can go here, to my first post on this project and see how it all started.

When you walk into a friend's home and they ask "shall I put the kettle on?" you now it is time for tea. Love the ritual, the break in the day, the pause as I like to say, that bit of chat. We should pause in our moments much more often. I am a coffee girl through and through but drinking tea became a habit when I lived in England. I still enjoy a cuppa, I keep PG tips in my house. I recently created a print which reads, "Coffee is always a good idea" and I dedicated a post to it here. I felt the need to honor tea and tea drinkers. So, here it is! This print is dedicated to my friends in the UK and to my friends from the UK that reside here in the US.




Here is my word path for today 



Happy Weekend • Enjoy a Cuppa • Enjoy the Language of Words

  3. Oh Deborah: I am a HUGE tea drinker! Gave up coffee entirely almost twenty years ago and now mail order only loose, strong tea. My favorite is Assam... and I would love, someday, to go to the tea plantations in India! We'll have to get together for a cuppa'.... Merry Christmas!
