How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: Simply used the tea kettle and oven more. Not in a rush anymore so no reason I can't wait for the tea kettle or oven to heat up. All part of a plan to slow down and live the simple life. Read how I did it…

I bought these beautiful blue and white china teacups at an estate sale today for pennies…they are so lovely. I also bought a glass tea carafe with silver rim. I am now drinking jasmine tea…happy.
