Owner Tammy Hanna can tell you, every tea room in the Rustic Root has design elements that remember close family and friends that have passed on.

Today's post is an ode to Italy, and a prayer for the swift recovery of the Italian people. Coincidentally (there are no coincidences, though, right?), back in December, Babingtons Tea Room of Rome shipped us a very generous sampling of their private blend teas, which we'll review later in this post, to remind us that even in dark times, there is creativity, beauty and good things brewing.

Tending Our Humanity

Lately, everywhere I look, I see this truth repeated: we need to take care of each other. Taking tea is an act of welcome and friendship, which we always need to practice (just in smaller groups for now).

Destination Tea: The Café at Thistle Farms

DestinationTea — Wed, 27 Nov 2019 18:21:02 +0000

To take tea here is to participate in this peacemaking and healing, and it feels so good. All "goodwill-towards-women" feelings aside, this afternoon tea stands on its own as one we highly recommend, for its locally-sourced, scratch-made quality and scrumptiousness.
