A week or so ago, we heard some sad news…one of our favourite tea houses in Melbourne was closing it’s doors. We discovered Storm in a Teacup back in 2013, and have been regular visitors there since…and we always have some Storm tea stocked in our pantry. So as the closing date of 31st May […]
Every now and then, two of my interests combine to create something perfect…this is one of them! The T2 Teamaker redesigns the conventional teapot, and allows a perfect cup of tea to be brewed…a gadget that makes good tea…yep, perfect!

While we were enjoying a pre-Christmas mini break down the coast earlier this week, we were rather excited to find a specialty tea…and coffee….house, located right in the seaside city of Geelong! Cartel Roaster’s Brew Bar is located on the corner of Little Malop and James Street, and is a new venture that has only […]
