Teapot Tuesday
Not sure what kind of tea would taste best brewed in a chicken teapot but this one is a cutie, isn't it? Tea suggestions welcome!!! It is very strange, this domination of our intellect by our digestive organs. We cannot work, we cannot think, unless our stomach wills so. It dictates to us our emotions, our passions.
