With all the time I've spent buying tea, drinking tea, and combing through tea shops, I thought I'd seen pretty much all the greatest tea items out there. Wow was I wrong. Today I saw this amazing book in the office, waiting to be shelved, and since I hadn't seen it before I took it back to my desk to browse. From the very first moment I opened it I was bowled over. Mariage Freres: French Tea is a gorgeous tome of tea images, tea info and bold photos. I sat at my desk leafing through it and drooling over the pictures of tea plantations, hundreds of styles of tea pots, and foods made with tea. It just got better and better and more and more beautiful. So if you have a friend who drags you into tea shops, collects old tea tins, and talks endlessly about the most recent teas she's found, this is the book to buy her - but only if you don't want to carry on a conversation for a few hours after she's opened it.
