Tea Bag Graveyard
I hate to sound like a tea Nazi but the kitchen sink is definitely not a place for spent tea bags. Now before you jump in and accuse me of facism let me put it this way: Would you place the Mona Lisa in the toilet? Would you place a Michaelangalo sculpture in your compost heap?
Of course not!
And that is my point - a tea bag is a work of art. The tea, the process, love, time and effort gone into bringing it to your life is miraculous and so to discard it so callously and in such an open fashion on the kitchen sink is utterly reprehensible! Alas I’ve found myself doing it at times and so I thought I’d post an image of my indiscretion. It was only for a miniute until I realised what I’d done and it was quickly whisked into the rubbish.
Okay?
No? Well okay - its in the rubbish I know. I know what you’re thinking - it’s art, etc how can you do that? Well I never said don’t bin it. I just meant give it some dignity because the magnificent tea bag doesn’t look entirely pleasant after its been spent so to keep its final time on this planet dignified and proud it is best kept away form sight in the bin. Not on the sink in all its soggy, limp glory so to speak.
[UPDATE: The solution is the tea bag bin]
