teapot ~ an institution

            "Outside of the chair, the teapot is the most ubiquitous and important design element in the domestic environment and almost everyone who has tackled the world of design has ended up designing one."  ~David McFadden

"Tea that helps our head and heart. Tea medicates most every part.
Tea rejuvenates the very old. Tea warms the hands of those who're cold."  
~J. Jonker, Amsterdam, circa 1670 

"If I could take your Troubles, I would toss them in the Sea. 
But since I can't, I'm sending you, My favorite cup of tea."  ~Anon
