Thank you to the Jeremiah school for spending time with me at the teahouse today learning about tea, tea culture, and process. It’s always a delight to host students groups!

Jesse at the teahouse might have some good information on this

Some of my latest pottery pieces. The shrine on top was done in a workshop at ArtCurious in Johnson City, plus some garden markers, and a mug for my daughter as a gift.

East Tennessee peeps, definitely check out the Feisty Pigeon wine bar in Johnson City, Tennessee! It is delightful.

This country is just one big reality show. A terrible one.

Nice!!

Gorgeous!

Always looking for the colorful bits, in a world of grey. Nashville has been good to us in this brief visit. See you next time…

The holiday fundraiser for The Philosopher’s House was wildly fabulous! Thank you to all of our supporters, donors, attendees, and behind-the-scenes helpers who made this a wonderful night. You’re all the best. 💕

The Grinch cheermeister is here to remind you that the holiday fundraiser party for The Philosopher‘s House in Johnson City is happening tonight at 7 PM at Mulligan‘s Irish pub! We still have some tickets left at $45 per person. Come on down!

Song is 'Thank You Very Much' by Rising Appalachia

I'm also super grateful to be alive.... Deep deep gratitude for all my neighbors, friends, and family... without you my current situation would look a lot different.

I mean, that’s what I SHOULD be doing. Oh well….

😂😂

Sundays are for big breakfasts, driving back roads, bowls of thick soup, and mountain top wineries.

That’s our gongfu cha table at the teahouse I manage. My boss built it. It’s truly stunning!

Foster kitten is correct. 💕

Thank you! I’ve been fortunate to supply the teahouse with a constant stream of bouquets most of the summer. So it’s been a treat to have them this late in the season, even though the weather is absolutely wonky for E TN.

Nah, we just prefer cats over crusty takes, tea over toxic vibes, and books over bad faith arguments. Let the haters stew; we’re busy building a cozy little hygge corner here with intelligent conversations. Meow. 📙🐱☕ #BlueSky

The weather has been really weird all year here in East TN, even beyond the devastating hurricane. So here we are heading into late November and we haven’t had a single freeze in Jonesborough yet. But there was snow yesterday so I picked all of the last flowers before the snow came.💕

Same! I keep thinking these people are extremely optimistic or naïve

I love that we do get snow here in the Tennessee mountains, but I wish we got a little bit more without it lasting too many days! We can go entire winters without getting enough to go sledding, but it always looks pretty at some point.

It’s snowing in East TN. That is all. 💕

RIGHT???!!!

Whenever people say “pottery is so relaxing“ 😂
