Love the pretty china in this tea shop.
Also fits the friday photo theme of "icons" - what is a more appropriate British cultural icon than a cup of tea? (wikipedia agrees!)

Tea may not cure every one of your problems, but it sure does help clear the mind. Unfortunately this is my last cup of joy. Apparently they believe consumers only need joy around Christmas time...so I'll just have to wait until they started rolling out the boxes of "Christmas Morning [Black Tea]" in eight months.
Ah well. I didn't accomplish much today, but I've been happy; and have laughed more than I have in a long while. So that's a nice achievement in its self.
Also, if you need a good reason to smile, go watch THIS.
The plaque says that:
Lacking a foot, cups of this type had to be emptied before they could be set down. Like the satyr and maenad painted on the rim, the donkey was associated with Dionysos, god of wine. From about 480 B.C.

The ABN AMRO tower in Zwolle is, with its 96 meters of height, the largest tower of the city. The unofficial name of the tower is "De IJsseltoren" ("The IJssel Tower", named after the IJssel river).
The tower offers a very unique view over the city. Unfortunately, it's closed for public.
But lucky me, someone could sneak me into the building. The office lights were very bright, so the reflections were too heavy to take real good long exposure shots. So I decided to take some short exposure handheld pics with ISO 1000 (sorry for the noise).
On the left you see my dear host Elias reflected in the window, taking a cup of coffee; in the background you see the city of Zwolle.
One of the most difficult cups ever to pour latte art in. Essentially a "quad espresso" cup. Lindsay Parker poured this. Wowsa. Standard 2.5oz cup shown for comparison.

Yummy beetroot and Spanish onion from the garden. Too tired to look at any more photos. I need to take a short break from organizing my photos ( a mammoth task ) and start some quilting instead.
I planned to take my portrait at lunchtime of December 12. However, it has been past 12:12:12 while I had a hard fight without being able to take the steam that I expected.
Because I was annoyed, I decided to retake only the steam.
On the midnight of December 12, 2012 in my office.

僕は12月12日のランチタイムに肖像を撮ろうと計画していました。しかし期待した湯気を撮れずに苦戦しているうちに12時12分12秒を過ぎてしまいました。
悔しいので、湯気だけを撮り直す事にしました。

The names of many different types of coffee had me googling on Boxing Day
The design is actually a Wordle
Update: it did not survive very long, but neither of us can now recall when or how it went.
