The Tea Cosy Book Bonanza
Never trust a man who, when left alone with a tea cosy, does not try it on. (Billy Connolly) I have never used a tea cosy (or tea cozy, as some apparently refer to it). Which makes sense, because of all of the methods I’ve used for making tea – being a solo tea drinker… Continue reading
