This is my over stuffed green leather chair where I enjoy my tea the most. It is situated under my loft bed, which is what the random metal poles behind it are.

Usually I drink tea at home:

But sometimes I go to Ten Ren with friends:

Okay, I didn't think a pic of a Bizen tea cup in front of a laptop would be very exciting, so I cheated.

I usually drink my tea in my den (home office,) which is usually quite lovely and interesting, with cool collectibles, nice green walls, etc.

But right now it looks like a bomb went off due to my efforts to clean out unnecessary items and dead files from my work office, which are now piled in overflowing banker boxes all over the room and topped off with various athletic training items (balls, stretch bands, help charts...) :shock:

I need to do some cleaning. bleh.

I'm similar to GeekgirlUnveiled and britt. I do a lot of tea-drinking in our study, where the computer is; but as britt says, there is nothing very exciting about a cup next to a computer.

And while the study used to look comparatively neat, I've had an explosion of untidiness recently and have to do some MAJOR cleaning and jettisoning before I dare take a photograph of it.

Otherwise, I sometimes sit in the Dutailier glider rocker (platform rocking-chair) that my mother left me, and enjoy my tea with no distractions whatsoever.

Ok, so this isn't mine, however... IF I get my Dad's permission, I'm so building one in my yard. It doesn't look that hard to make either.

How about being my guest at the Russian Tea Room in Chicago?

Russian tea, blini and caviar, pirogi with pheasant, and so on and so forth...

After we are done with tea we can have some of their famous vodka shots.
