Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cozy, doesn't try it on.
Billy Connolly

This little dusty corner of the site is here not to talk about tea, nor cake. It's simply here to talk about the things around tea and cake. Sound a bit odd? Think about it. What's your Dad's favourite mug? Why does your Aunt insist they fill teapots with water and test pour them in shops before she buys them?

It's because these things matter. There's that plate that birthday cake should always be on. The tea cozy that your granny knitted you, thinking it would be just the thing you needed when you went away to University (bless...)

The little things you have that brighten up your kitchen, office, or take pride of place in your trophy cabinet...

And of course, this is where we also plug our own range of delightfully crafted and wonderfully stylish teaandcake.co.uk paraphernalia.
