A Tea Addict's Journal

Housecleaning

March 11, 2023 · 5 Comments

So, it’s been a while. I have sort of neglected this place – partly because I have nothing really new to say, partly because, well, blogs are a bit of a dead genre. Either way, this place has languished.

But I do have plans, at least, to try to change that. One impetus is that I moved recently, which means that, once again, I packed up all my teapots and am reminded of the gargantuan task of cataloging all of them. I should take photos of them all, and while doing so, I suppose I should also post them here. So, I’m making myself do that, and you can expect to see teapot porn soon. I will, however, make a small change. No more volume measure – it’s a finicky thing that doesn’t really serve any purpose anyway. I think I’ll just put physical dimension here and call it a day. Measuring volume requires me to pour water in, weigh it, pour it out, and then let it dry – a time consuming process that also adds risk of breakage. I’d rather not do that. So, physical measure it will be.

Another thing of note is that finally, this website has an https address, so Chrome won’t freak out anymore about it being not updated. Sorry for the long delay in that. I also have a lot of links to my old photobucket that probably should be fixed. I’ve been working on it, but it’s taking a long time and I’ve got other things to do, alas. That’s what happens when you run a site off old, old web services from the early 2000s and never spent the time going back fixing everything…

Anyway, hope you’re all alive and well.

    As someone new to tea I find the fact that a lot of blogs are dying out kind of sad. Sometimes I feel like an archeologist digging up long forgotten gems, but other than that it sort of feels like a childhood friend moved away and you never got see them after that. Melancholy fills my heart when I see the last post was written in like 2007… anyway I am glad you are still going 🙂

    That’s really great to see a new post here – I’ve been following your blog for 5 years, probably, and truly enjoyed reading it, getting some knowledge and interesting information out of your personally experienced posts. Really looking forward to seeing a photo gallery of your teapots collection!
    Cheers from Ukraine! Staying alive;-)
