Teapot Tempestuousness

This morning I made my tea in the brown pot I bought last week to replace the white one whose lid had broken.

It cracked with a neat fissure near the bottom, all across the teapot. Tea poured everywhere — onto the stove, the counter, my sock. I make loose tea. This was tea with a lot of tealeaves all over the kitchen. Scalding.

Is it really so very much to ask to have a teapot that will JUST POUR TEA without spilling? I guess so.

  1. Aaaargh! Sorry, Pica! What a mess! I just bought a cast-iron Chinese pot, figuring it will never break. I like porcelain or stoneware so much better, but this little cobalt blue pot is growing on me…
