The artisans at Full Bloom Tea are very creative with their teas. This amazing tea "blooms" before your very eyes into drinkable floral bouquets. Their tea comes in several different varieties as you can see in the photograph on the right. The photograph shows Fire Bloom, Teapot Bloom, Let Love Bloom and Friendship Bloom.
Here's how it works.
When steeped in water that has been boiled, our tea blooms twist, turn, move and appear to bloom right before your eyes into amazing floral bouquets. Not only are these teas beautiful, but they also contain the finest rare Silver Needle White Tea leaves rich in antioxidants and are infused with beautiful dehydrated flowers such as Jasmine, Globe Amaranth and Marigold just to name a few which give additional flavors and health benefits to our teas. Mild in flavor, our tea blooms can be re-steeped up to 3 times each. And once you are done steeping and drinking, why not put the used bloom in a clear glass or vase with clean water to enjoy the beauty as a centerpiece or on your nightstand for an extra day or two.

Earlier this week the Paper Crafts Magazine blog was kind enough to remind everyone that there are grouches in this world we live in.
I'm sure we all know a grouch or two in real life. Perhaps it's a crabby neighbor who always finds fault with your lawn, dog, kids, etc. Maybe you have a mother-in-law who has no problem sharing "her" way of doing things. Perhaps you have a boss who walks around with a constant frown on his face.
Whoever you are, wherever you live, grouches live among us.
Fortunately, the Paper Crafts Magazine blog had a method for cheering up all these grouches. The solution: Grouch Cupcakes! These cakes look like a sure-fire way to cheer up any grump. You can see the instructions on the sesameworkshop website.
