    Roadside teacup?! Incredible that it isn’t broken, nice find! What kind of tea? “Strong morning tea” makes me think some kind of black tea blend like a breakfast tea

      Thank you for engaging with my content 🙇🏻 I left out that it was sitting in a box of items for give away so not quite dredged out of the gutter haha.

      For teas any black tea steeped for five+ minutes. I try to get the fancy fair trade stuff but it’s usually too refined for my palate, so I get the rainforest certified name brand orange pekoes, breakfasts, etc.

      I wish I could find a real fair trade tea that was just actually garbage. Like sweepings that hit you over the head with bitter tannins. But alas.

    I’ve gotten cups from thrift stores, but for some reason this bothers me. It’s a cool cup though, I get it.

    I once found a nice drinking glass outside of a bar next to my home, one of those tough cocktail glasses. It is my favourite drinking glass now and has been for years. If anything happened to my beloved drinking glass I would be very sad, despite the fact that I could buy another one for 99 Cents.

    So jelly, I haven’t found a quality cup in at least a year. Thrift stores here are just LACKING. Texas had way better scrounging opportunities…grumble…
