About Me
- Name: Miss Robyn
- Location: Katoomba, Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia
I live in Australia, my ancestry is in Cornwall. a hedgewitch of sorts. I am an Earth Healer. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. A gypsy. An eccentric. a mystic. I am a searcher, a seeker, a pilgrim on Earth. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Coriander, parsley & mint. I love to dream, to walk and to wonder
*AH! there's nothing like staying home for real comfort*

- coin purses & napkins
- letters & postcards
- religious medals * rosary beads & cards

You're only here for a short visit * don't hurry * don't worry *
And be sure to smell the flowers along the way

I found that absolutely fascinating, Robyn! I'd love to have a taste of all of those (but not all in one day - lol!)
What an interesting site. I am a big tea drinker (I'm British, it's allowed ;-)) - it tastes all the better when it's from an old dainty china cup, brewed in a tea pot and comes with added sympathy.
That is a very nice idea Robyn. Thanks for sharing.
Take care,
Connie
That site was fabulous, and you are right, I too would have ordered for my Pop if customs would allow us. Technically I am not a tea drinker... though will enjoy a nice strong brew if the occassion calls for it. I need milk in mine though, which strikes out the herbal types, and leaves me with the English varieties. I am off to search Australian web sites for the euivalent of your find..... Much love xox
Robyn, how interesting I did not know they made tea for saints that is great. I would love the:
Saint Peregrine's Green Blend Tea
sipping while sitting! lol under a pear tree in the garden watching the little finches chase bugs in the air............yes that would be a blessing worth having.
Well I just ordered the sample of all! Thanks Ms. Robin!
What a shame we cant get the tea here Robyn. We shall have to search for another source. Thank you for this interesting post.
Great site ~ shame about the customs regulations.
what a great site!
I found you thru Collete's journal, I'm a vintage girl too!
great site , for us tea lovers pity about customs, must be a way around them (legal)
Dearest Colette (A Bird in the HAnd) sent me some of this tea...very fresh ... very nice ! I am tickled pink to have it.
And now I know where she might have discovered it from ???
I was tooling around her links today and found your wonderful site.
going now to look around some more !
Love,S.
