I love this for a quick cup of tea. Chookie put me onto it last year at the Retreat. It is from T2.

It is a scoop infuser. Haven 't seen it in gold before. Very handy.

i have been a bad bad girl, i booked 2 hoildays for next year and also the no odd sock thingy

So where are you off to Uni and please explain the 'no odd sock thingy' - I don't know where I've been but I have no idea what that is.

Chookie - Bento box, what's that   :P

Gert - love your new addiction, I can't get my head around the fact you have more cuppas these days than glasses of wine  ;)  Do you have Fruitalicious amongst your collection?  I bought that one during the forumfest and I'm waiting for a heatwave to try it as iced tea.  One hot day is not enough for me to want to drink cold tea but I figure a few days in a row might do it for me. Do you have your teas hot or cold?


bali and tassie  ;D

Thanks Uni, a useful item - I've lost count of the lost socks in my lifetime of washing. 

Enjoy the holidays, you don't seem to stay home for long  ;D

Too funny. I had to round up some socks for Dh for our trip to Hobart. Usually we only wear sandals .

Lovely bento box chookie. Looks delish.

Judy our friends have warm clothes if needs be. When they come here we have to clothe them in tropical gear!

Looks good Chookie, interesting concept.

It's nice you are able to share your clothes with visitors Gert.
