I don’t normally do anything breakfasty in the morning, but while staying with friends the last couple days and having to get up at the ass-crack of dawn I’ve been starting my day with tea.

I mean, come one. This is why Etsy rules, these are fricking adorable. Giving the Japanese a run for their money in the cuteness department, is all I’m saying.

Also, one of these would make a lovely birthday present for your wife, if you had one. Or a “just because” present, really, since her birthday may not be until the end of December. Especially that first one.
