Tea at Irina's


my friend, Irina, is from belarus. she makes lovely tea. it's probably the same tea that i would make, but it's something special when i have it there. just lovely. it's so nice to sit at the table and have a nice hot cuppa and just talk. we usually have it with some lovely honey. during the farmer's markets, i'd buy 3 pound jugs of lovely locally grown honey and i always shared it with Irina. We met Irina and her girls, Hannah and Sasha, the april after we moved here. both of our families had moved from california (they were in sacramento) in sept/oct of 2004. her hannah is 6 months younger than irene. sasha is 3 days older than rhys. it was such a lovely case of stumbling upon each other. she is one of my dear friends and i feel lucky to have met her.
