| Hello,
the weather's going bonkers. We've enjoyed some of the heaviest
snow across London
in 18 years and Australia's having one of the hottest summers on
record.
I'm not sure whether the victims of the Victorian bushfires know
how many people are listening to their brave stories from all around
the world. Every news update on our radio, tv and daily papers
contain the most tragic and heroic tales of these Victorians who've
lived through firery hell over the last few days. What a reminder to
us all about the important things in life; love, family, friends and
community. Our thoughts are with them all.

Valentine. We have lots of high street retail outlets and
online sellers who are ready to share the love.
No excuses now, get romantic....

 Tea carts
are on standby ready to be sent off at a moments notice. Now
that's what we call a real emergency service!
There's something for everyone in this movie from the BFI
archives. Tea connoisseurs will benefit from the six golden
tips for making the perfect cuppa, as well as countless other
handy hints (never store your tea next to cheese, for
example).
Linguists will marvel at the way they say "orf" rather than
"off" and if you're someone who likes a man with eyebrows then
we've got just the one!

| And
Finally a word from the President of the Tea
World |
|
 My fellow
Americans, today is a Fun day. You have shown the world that
"hope" is not just another word for "herbal tea", and that "change" is
not only something we can believe in again, but something we
can actually drink.
Today we celebrate, but let there be no mistake - America
faces difficult and tough challenges like never before. Our
economy is far from green. Americans can barely afford their
mortgages, let alone have enough money left over for posh
teabags. Our healthcare system is broken. If your heart is
sick and you don't have insurance, you might as well call a
tealady. And America's image overseas is tarnished like a
Grandma's silver sugar bowl. But drinking together we can
right this ship, and set a course for London.
Finally, I must thank my incredible family, my fabulous
campaign volunteers, but most of all, I want to thank Today
was Fun for making this historic occasion possible. Of course,
I must also thank you, President
Bush, for years of misleading the American people.
Without your misguided efforts, none of this would have been
possible.

Some things in life just go together; roasted
almonds and chocolate, pancakes with maple syrup and
everything with caramel.
Here's our Valentine's
Day recipe. I resisted getting out the heart shaped
cookie cutters and ignored the un-seasonal strawberries in the
supermarket.
It sorts itself out in the oven, the caramel layer just
appears by magic, once cooked.
If you've got the time, give it a go, if you don't, try
spreading a layer of peanut butter underneath a your
Nutella on your bread next time you fancy being indulgent.
