Teatime Giveaway #10 - "The Tea Deck" by Sara Perry

The winner of the Irish Breakfast Tea and Irish recipe booklet from last week is Linda J. of Friendship Tea. I think it's particularly fitting she won because Linda is celebrating her birthday this weekend! So, congratulations AND Happy Birthday to Linda! And now, this week's giveaway is "The Tea Deck: 50 Ways to Prepare, Serve and Enjoy" by Sara Perry.

These 50 cards include information on 30 different tea varieties, followed by 20 recipe cards. They are smartly housed in this little cardboard box, and I have a set myself that's the one shown in this photo, though yours will be the unopened, brand spanking new one up top.

This week's giveaway prompted me to go back and look at all the cards myself ("The Tea Deck" was first published in 2008), and I started lusting over the Ginger-Spice Tea Cake, shown here, as well as the Buckingham Palace Shortbread, said to be enjoyed by you-know-who at her afternoon tea at Buckingham Palace. Don't have "The Tea Deck" yet? Want one? Just leave a comment to this post between now and noon EST Friday, March 16, and you may be the winner. Good luck!

Contrats to Linda! I am sure she will enjoy her gift and have a cup of the Irish Breakfast tea in one of her lovely tea cup. Happy Birthday, Linda.

I saw the Tea Deck at Borders just before they closed and didn't get back to get it before they closed.
Thank you for the chance to win it.

I won last week and the book came and it is wonderful -- the book on English china! Thank you so much!

I so enjoy your blog and am always eager for your latest post!

Oh, how nice, please do enter me, Angela! I was at tea store Simpson & Vail the other day and this very same deck caught my eye, but there were so many other wonderful things to purchase, I didn't end up buying it. :-) Heidi T.

Hello Angela
The Tea Deck looks like a handy little package. I'm glad Linda won for her birthday; when I got home to find my tea from you, it was right around my birthday too which made it that much more special. (I'm enjoying trying a different tea each day)
I found your previous post on popovers interesting, they are our family version of yorkshire pudding and we only eat them with roast beef and gravy. Guess I should try them with tea and jam some day!

Please enter me in the giveaway. If I won, I would have to do like you last year and try new treats every week. I thought of you yesterday as I stood in the tea aisle at Tuesday Morning. (I bought a box of Typhoo tea.)

I just recently pulled out my copy of this. The photos are great and the info is educational - and in bite-sized chunks!

My husband and I love tea. These look interesting as there is probably great information and recipes to be had.
