This tree was a gift when we opened 8 years ago. It was just a small cutting in a little bottle of water. You can actually find a picture of it way back at the beginning of this account. It almost died during the pandemic because my cats loved sleeping in it! There was a point when I thought it was over, but I gave it another try. Now, it’s about 7 feet tall and thriving every day!

Never give up, even if it seems like it’s over. The circumstances don’t matter; the state of being does! There’s life to love ahead. Go there.

The space downstairs from Floating Mountain (a bubble tea/cafe chain) either on purpose or by accident 🤔 posted 35 pictures of cookies on our Google page!

It’s been causing a lot of confusion lately.

Unfortunately, Google has been useless in helping to fix or prevent this.

If anyone knows how to resolve this—besides just reporting the photos and waiting for nothing to happen—please let me know!

Observation of the guest from today’s tea ceremony:
“You never know which cup is the last. Did I appreciate it enough?”

Today’s tea ceremony.

Made me think of 64th gua in I Ching, not yet fulfilled. Perfectly imperfect. The cause is always simple.

I find myself drinking exclusively green tea this time of the year!

I bring fresh green tea only once a year in spring and once they are gone, it’s gone until the next spring!

Dragon Well- famous green tea from Hangzhou! It is not easy to get good famous tea, how paradoxical is it?🦜

I was asked today, how do you learn Gong Fu?

✋First, you study:
•Tea -types, quality, veraetties …
•Pots - types, clay, shapes & forms, pours..
•Water - properties, ways of heating, methods of pouring …
•Techniques -sequences, orders, methods, timing, signs …
•Tea place - types, arrangements, essentials principles, messages …
•Flower arrangement - purpose, ways, styles, meanings…
•Posture - forms, ways, exercises, maintenance…
•Breath - methods, effects, ways, awareness…
•Mudras - meanings, purpose, application…
•Lights - recognition, awareness..
🤟Then, you let it all go and brew tea.
