OFF THE SHELF

HAPPINESS IS A RED TEAPOT

EDITED BY ANOUSKA JONES, EXILE PUBLISHING, $29.99

Gorgeous images and accompanying quotes combine to make the ultimate gift for tea lovers. From rock stars including Mick Jagger (“I got nasty habits; I take tea at three.”) and Rod Stewart (“Brewing a good cuppa is something not everyone can do, and I loathe bad tea.”) to comedian Billy Connolly (“Never trust a man who, when left in a room with a tea cosy, doesn’t try it on.”) and adventurer Bear Grylls (“I was always brought up to have a cup of tea at halfway up a rock face.”) it’s pretty much impossible to pick this book up and not crave a cuppa.
