“To make us love our country, our country ought to be lovely.”
― Edmund Burke, Reflections on the Revolution in France

“Hungry? Thirsty? Tired and need a place to lay your head?

Need your shoe tied? A book read? A ride to baseball? New sheets for your dorm? A babysitter for your kids? A quiet cup of tea?

Do you need help navigating a problem? A heartache? A loss? Celebrating a win?

Want motivation? Validation? To be challenged? To be held? To be loved?

Call a mom.”
― Elizabeth Tambascio

“It’s so great, I thought, having tea in the afternoon with someone you really feel at home with.”
― Banana Yoshimoto, Kitchen

“I pass by cottages with candles glowing in windows, rocking chairs on front porches where people sit with large books on their laps drinking steaming cups of golden milk or tea that smells of chamomile and night jasmine. The entire place feels like a storybook, an old world frozen in time.”
― Shea Ernshaw, Long Live the Pumpkin Queen
