Evening tea and journalling

Hi everyone...it's Tuesday evening in Singapore

and I trust you had a good week so far....

well it's time to wind down after a day's work..

tonight, I'm having Tie Kuan Yin

in a mug which I made myself many many years back..

It's been many tiring weeks and I missed

the journalling and my usual Art time...

well I've been trying to sneak some time for art here and there...

and tonight I wrote on one of 2 newly bound art journals..

with signatures assembled from odd sizes from my stash of watercolor paper,

sandwiched between laces and fabric...

Please join Kimmie and the Tea Tuesday gang for delicious tea stories..

Happy Tuesday everyone!!!

(I'll be traveling next week for a short getaway

cum work so I hope to share an exotic tea story

from Lijiang, Yunnan the following week)

Till then.....

stay happy

sources of happiness....

I know I have shared this quote previously but I'll do it again
as I reflect on this from another perspective...

"The art of happiness begins with an understanding
of what are the sources of  happiness, and setting our priorities
in life based on the cultivation of those sources.."
 The 14th Dalai Lama

ink sketch with watercolor.

 

"sources of happiness"...

 

one that I can think of is..

 

friends from blogland...

 

thank you dear friends...

 

 

I've missed tea this week as I've been rather busy at work..

but hope to be back soon...

 

take care..

Vadai and Moroccan on Tuesday!

Feast your eyes on Vadai  , a traditional South Indian snack

Made from Dhal beans..and totally vegetarian vadai is one of my favourite snacks!

And I wouldn't want to miss this for anything...

Sitting on a comfortable sofa at the Sentosa Resort and

sipping a hot cup of Moroccan Mint tea

with Vadai overlooking a lush garden with my book 

ahh...this is luxury.....

so, hop over to Kimmie's for more tea stories 

Happy tea Tuesday!!

nor value judgments, simply lives, speaks and plays in freedom"
