Breville One-Touch Tea Maker BTM800XL= automatic “like” =D
woo :) that’s going to be all my morning teas – i set them up the night before and wake up to tea, it’s so great, too bad i can’t afford to have one at work and home!
Yeah I quite enjoy the process of making tea but 1st cuppa in the morning and when I come home (especially in the winter) will be SO nice… and will motivate me to drink more thru out the day.
