It’s Tuesday, and happy Saint Patrick’s Day!! The swapmeet is open for business for the next week. Birthdays: Penelope Lively, William Gibson, Nat King Cole, Alexander McQueen. What fragrance are you wearing?
I’m in Etro Shaal Nur, for a not particularly spring-like day. Tea at the moment is Harney CTC Assam, since I’m out of Irish Breakfast.
Reminder: 3/20 is the equinox! Celebrate the new season howsoever you see fit.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2026, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.
Note: the Shamrock teapot from Belleek (“Shamrock Tableware, with its basket weave, is a timeless design first created in the 1880s”) is $216 at Ann Marie’s.
