Loose teas are my favorite, but a close second are the fancy silk tea bags. Tea Forte' has these pyramid shaped silk infusers. Topping them off is a tiny paper leaf of tea! They have several flavors and even have little square dishes to set the infuser in. Someday I will buy one of those! This little demi tea cup and saucer was from my mother's tea cup collection. 
The silk tea bag on the left is a Harney and Sons tea "sachet." It's a special touch to use one of these.This small plate is Old Country Roses "Seasons of Colour," by Royal Albert.Thank you for your interest, please leave a comment! And please do return soon! Katherine

Hi Katherine,
I just wanted to pop in and say hello. I've been out of commission for a few days but hoping to get back to posting tomorrow. I'm soooo ready for that guest room bed again!! :)
Come see me soon!
Hugs,

Hi Katherine.
Thanks for visiting me. Wouldn't it be fun to get together for a cup of tea? I don't go for fancy teas much, just a good hot cup of English Breakfast tea is my favorite. I like Earl Grey also. I've found that Tetley British Blend is the closest you can get to real English teas here. I'll bookmark you too.

I LOVE that plate. Thank you for sharing about the tea! Have a wonderful day!
You really are a tea connoisseur (one who has expert knowledge and keen discrimination) of tea. I, for one, am VERY impressed. I appreciate the education on the subject I'd never even heard of silk tea bags.

Oh, I don't think I could use one of those! They are so pretty! Does tea taste better in silk?
Thanks for visiting my blog...It was so fun to then get on your blog and browse...It is so beautiful and I loved all of your teapots! I think the silk tea bags are so neat...I learned something new! It's fun to meet another "girly-girl"....I plan to be one as long as possible! (Who cares what age we are? ha!)Have a wonderful and blessed day!
Wow learn something new everyday! How very interesting thank you.

Katherine, Thank you for the advise on pictures! I wrote everything down, and I'm gonna try it next time! How neat you would take time to explain to me. Have a great evening!
I always loved tea and never even knew there was a sweet silk tea bag. How neat is that! This week's teacup is lovely as is your Mom's. Linda
These are lovely!

I LOVE tea! I drink it everyday! I haven't had coffee in years. I've had some of the fancier teas in the silk bags, they are very good. I don't buy them on a regular basis but every now and then I pick some up if I come across a new tea shop. Your tea cup is very pretty.

Katherine,
I love tea of all kinds. When I was young, we used loose tea. When I had a home of my own, we still used loose tea until it was hard to find. Now we can find it but are used to tea bags. I also enjoy green tea, which is supposed to be very good for us.
Thanks for sharing.
Blessing,
Mary
Katherine,
You really know your tea....you know, I enjoy tea but I've never had it made from a silk bag....I need to look into this.....
I think your minister was a man after God's own heart....we all need to be more compassionate towards others....
Thanks for dropping by....Betty
What a beautiful tea cup and tray!
So sweet.
I like using the Tea Forte pyramids for parties. Some of the tea is so brightly colorful and it gets everyone talking. Your mother's cup and saucer are beautiful.
You have such lovely tea things, the teacup and saucer is so beautiful!

That is such a pretty and dainty little teacup and saucer. I'm enjoying your posts on tea.
