Welcome and Thank you for stopping by

tea4kate !

This has been the summer of family reunions for us.

We have had precious time with so many relatives

from several states.

Being part of a family that includes cousins, (first

and second and even those "once removed" cousins),

aunts and uncles, grandparents and if we are lucky,

great-grandparents, means we are woven together with

different generations and perspectives....and the

stories and the history....such an important element

in defining who we are, what "tribe", " we belong to

as we grow up!

I love this quote by Peal Buck....

The lack of emotional security of our American young people is due, I believe, to their isolation from the larger family unit.  No two people - no mere father and mother - as I have often said, are enough to provide emotional security for a child.  He needs to feel himself one in a world of kinfolk, persons of variety in age and temperament, and yet allied to himself by an indissoluble bond which he cannot break if he could, for nature has welded him into it before he was born.  ~Pearl S. Buck

Hope your summer includes lots of family...extended family time!

Happy  Family Infusions,

Kate

Iced Tea-Time

Iced teas are absolutely refreshing on warm summer days. Why not try some new flavors for your iced teas?  We recommend the following:

Blueberry Rooibos.....a rooibos with dried blueberries....a creamy blueberry taste.

Shanghai Lime......a favorite green tea flavored with freeze dried lime crisps and lemon peels....an exotic iced tea!

Strawberry Fields Forever.....sweet strawberry and papaya pieces round out an exceptionally smooth green tea.

Cranberry Breeze....a black tea with dried cranberry bits.

Cranberry Orange....black tea combined with cranberries and orange flavor.

Lemon Lift...black tea with lemon bits....so refreshing!

Order all these online or if you are local, email me and I can meet you at the tearoom office to pick up your teas.  We may also have some of these teas in our booth at the Antique Mall.

Visit our booth at Oregon Street Antique---We have moved to the top of the carpeted stairs! Stop by and visit our booth for some unique gift items and great tea!!

Our booth at Oregon Street Antique is brimming with all things

My Sweet Husband, Phillip, began traveling to other countries with his business in the 1980's. He embraced the food and customs from many countries. I was blessed to accompany him on many occasions.

In our travels, we have had tea in England, China, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong. Our most fascinating experience was in Mongolia taking "salt-milk" tea with friends in a ger (traditional Mongolian home).

In 2006 we opened Oregon Street Tea Company in downtown Redding, California. While our tea room was only open a little over a year, we had an incredible experience !

We miss all of you wonderful people who supported us ! Thank you for your continued patronage !
