Things that make you want a cup of tea. I review & quote audiobooks, though I do collect unique books, post food made by me, my cats, and occasionally repost cozy things.

"Why should I cling to a life so far removed from beauty and passion? Peonies, though lovely, shed their bright petals and die."
