tea boat

after a couple of amazingly sunny days here in seattle, we were greeted with rain yet again early this morning. so amy and i made ourselves some tea. then i went down to the basement to grab some material for a new wedding cake topper, and when i came back up, i was greeted with a boat. for my tea.

i put it in the cup and watched it float for several seconds. it was lovely. perhaps it was the heat, but it moved around a bit over the surface of the water.

and then it sank.
