GREEN TEA

Yesterday morning on my way to the studio I stopped in at a café around the corner to get some green tea.  Somewhere I've picked up the belief that green tea is good for everything.  Brisk winter mornings.  A nasty cold.  Delusions of weight loss.  Etc.

I opened the packet.  Fragrant, leafy green tea.  Sewn up in an organza-like pouch, edged in unbleached ivory thread.  Surprised, I spent several moments smelling the tea and watching it diffuse into my mug.

Moments I'd never have spent on an ordinary tea bag.

Wouldn't it be great if there were more beautiful things in the world that made us actually stop to experience.

So yesterday while I was working, a flying piece of molten glass burned a hole in my favorite bra.  Although I recognize and appreciate the fact that generous padding in said bra probably saved me from a more noteworthy incident, why, oh why couldn't it have happened on a bad bra day?
