Happy New Year from Geek and the Poppets. May all your days be filled with the perfect cuppa!
Awww thanks Geek! Great perspective with the poppets looking upwards.
Good luck on your bookcase. Yay, to more storage!!
As for me ... I need to step away and stop ordering tea!

Happy New Year, everyone! (Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu for the Japanese-speakers) I hope that 2009 brings everyone their heart's desire, be it world peace or... that $5,000 chawan you've had your eye on.
Currently enjoying some delicious Spiced Vanilla Chai that I received from Geekgirl. My husband loves it, too. Of course he didn't mind that I liberally added some whipped cream to the top of the chai! There goes one "resolution"
Tea-wise, I'm trying to get around to some tea that I ordered in the autumn. Right now I'm enjoying some Xu Fu Long Ya from TeaSpring. I was surprised at the asparagus-like fragrance, but it's no hindrance at all - I love it. (Of course I'm a bit partial to vegetal flavours to begin with!)

Better late than never: Happy New Year! 
We got the Christmas decorations put up. Tree out, outside lights down, nativity stored, etc. It was a beautiful day here on the west coast of Florida for opening up the house and doing a few chores.
I had several cups of chai throughout the day and made Irish Breakfast for my wife during the late morning. I then prepared a blueberry blend for her this afternoon.
We have a tradition of going out for New Years - so we're off soon. Don't know where yet but the current choices are Italian or Mongolian BBQ.

Just had a nice session of Sencha Premier from Adagio. I have noticed it is hard to mess this up, having forgotten about the second steep that was left to steep a few minutes more than once ... came out fine. Sweetie joined in while Gandalf just wanted to be held.

in my new Japanese mouth-blown tea bowl I bought with my Christmas TeaBucks.
It is frosty, smooth and beautiful.
