Join me for a cup of tea.
I have been all caught up in life lately, and I need a nice sit down, and a soothing brew to help me gather my thoughts. This is a picture of my gorgeous new kettle. The old one was leaking water all over the kitchen bench, and I was getting a bit scared it would electrocute my one day, so it has been replaced with this timeless little number. A whistling, stovetop kettle.
It is so much fun to pop it on the stove, and wander off, to be called back by the charming whistle when it is tea time. I am enjoying the ritual of it all. Putting the kettle on is slightly more than simply flicking a switch.
The kitten is not so impressed, however. The first time she heard it she ducked and scurried off into a corner until she was certain the threat had moved on. Yes, we all laughed at her, adding insult to injury.

I'll come join you Emma! I just sat down to read blogs with my "Blueberry Tea". Your new kettle is very cute, I love those types and poor silly little kitty, I would have laughed to I'm afraid ;)
I am so with you on tea kettles and tea pots and with Pam on blueberry tea.
And well, I would laugh at the cat too.
I suppose I would have laughed at the cat, but I am aware of how embarrassed some animals seem to get, if they are laughed at!
Nice kettle,- can I have Ginseng & Lime please?
I would love to! Your new kettle is awesome.
Lovely kettle! My cats don't seem to care about our whistling kettle, which is surprising - they jump whenever the phone rings!
Hi Emma,
So good to see you back! I'll join you for that cup of tea too!
Love your new kettle, I've got a boring electric one. A whistling kettle - mmm that sounds real homey. What a lovely idea.
Hope things aren't too hectic - how are the renovations going?
