timing the tea........

..........the egg-timer allows you to time your tea bag in the cup for 3,4 or 5 mins. I just liked the colours.

that pale green is a lovely colour & the sand in the timers add to the colourful scheme...I suppose you use a different timer for different strengths!

[Louise Davies]

Great shot and what a good idea!

[Julie Duncan]

Very nicely composed! I've never seen anything like a 3-vial timer - unique! Also, I like the colors in this. The color of the table really lets the brighter colors shine more boldly.

[Barbara Havrot]

Now that's a novel use for an egg timer! Love the colours.

[Richard Creese]

Cool egg timer and an interesting use. ( I don't like my tea too strong )

@happypat

Exactly so!

@richardcreese

I also like rather weak tea; strong tea makes me feel a bit nauseous!

[Pyrrhula]

So do I . Rather have some coffee . Love the celadon color of the tea set.
For that I `ve one cup of tea to enjoy you

Lovely composition. Very nicely done.

I like that timer! I feel like all tea makes my stomach hurt...even if I drink it plain and nothing in it. :0( I love all the colors in this shot!

@espyetta

Hope you don't drink it too hot?!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@quietpurplehaze Maybe...I guess I could try it cooler...But now that I thinking of it, when I drink iced tea that is true too. But it has sugar in it so it may be the sugar in that case. Lots of stuff hurts my stomach..not just tea, so who knows?

@espyetta

It's often so hard to track down the cause of these 'problems'.

Great colours the bright ones in the egg timer and the pastel green of the tea pot.
