Sometimes you have wonderful discoveries in unexpected places. We had a just such an experience at the Log Cabin Tea Company located in Hartselle, Alabama. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a stroke of genius. A tea tasting bar. Right by the front door you have all these jars set up and you can take a…
Read MoreMaryAnn’s Tea Room
Located in the Central West End of St. Louis is the posh and slightly kitschy MaryAnn’s Tea Room. From the street you walk in through a little boutique which is the perfect place for the fashionista in you to stop and shop!

Austin is known for its hipness and The Steeping Room was in keeping with the vibrant aura surrounding Austin. There are two locations. We visited the one in the Domain, a high-end outdoor shopping center in northwest Austin. You are greeted by this mural over the cash register as you walk in the front door. I like…

It’s fun to try out new tea rooms and go have adventures in tea! However, you do take your chances anytime you try a new place – and that’s part of the fun – but this was one of those times when our adventure went a little cattywampus. I went to Birmingham, Alabama recently and…

It’s taken me 3 months to chronicle our one-week vacation from Edinburgh to London. Thank you for letting me share my pilgrimage to the land of tea. For a tea lover like me it was the trip of a lifetime! I’ll summarize it here but click on the links if you’d like to read more…
