Musee de Normandie Exposition - France

Musee de Normandie Exposition Gothic masterpieces in Normandy When we refer to the Middle Ages in Normandy, we think of the tutelary figure of William the Conqueror , duke of Normandy who became king of England, and the extraordinary adventure of his contemporaries in Sicily. After Normandy was "annexed" to France in 1204, it really flourished artistically. Between tradition and modernity, the 13 th century saw an original Gothic style take over. All the cathedrals of Normandy were rebuilt in this new style. In this way, hundreds of churches, abbeys and chapels were built, converted or adapted to suit the tastes of the day. The luxury, wealth and density of the decorative work on these monuments is outstanding. The sumptuous cathedral treasures of which few items survive are so precious that they give some idea of the original wealth.. The statuary, mostly in Caen stone, offers a very full panorama of stylistic develop

A note on Tea - Part 3

Good tea should never be hoarded or bought in large quantities, it does not get any better in "Maturing". Tea is extremely sensitive and can easily be affected by contact with other things - therefore, always keep it separately to protect the flavored and aroma. To make China tea, for best results, use a porcelain or earthenware (never a metal) tea pot and rinse it thoroughly with boiling water. Allow a level teaspoon for every guest - but none for the pot. Make sure the water in your kettle is fresh and freshly boiled. As soon as it bubbles, pour it over the tea leaves in the pot, stir once with a clean spoon, leave to stand for three minutes and serve.
