I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn't work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.

Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!

It went from stupid purchase to something I'd gladly replace if it broke.

Oh boy. Similar story for my wife and me. Now we've got 3 gaiwans, 4 yixing clay pots, and two cast iron pots. And now we do a little tea ceremony everyday. It's a great way to just sit together and chat without other distractions.

    I never quite got into the tea ceremony part, I admit. (Maybe because I live alone and don't have anyone to share it with.) My first teapot was glass, and I like viewing the color of the brewing tea. Plus, the gaiwans/yixing are so small...I'd rather brew a big pot and have it last than have to go back to re-steep teas.

    I know I'm probably missing out on the experience of the tea changing flavors subtly as it's steeped and re-steeped...I just can't give up my big glass pot, haha.
