"IK-Tea is just a play on letters IKEA and tea" Aha...I understand, now. There's an Ikea store just 1/2 mile from me. dtallakson

Oh, super Pops. And your sense of humour remains an example to many. Lovely work.

Excellent background idea, Pops. Thanks for the tip! I hadn't read all of that history before. You do need help. *wink* ~lydia

CJ, An intervention is not needed. There's no addiction here and there's no problem. I'm fine, believe me. (The first stage is denial!)

;-) Pops, you're a lost cause - I think an intervention is called for! CJ

Oops, sorry AussieDawg. I forgot to mention that the background is a single piece of white poster board that curves from horizontal to vertical. You can't see the seam because there is no seam.

Pops. I feel for your addiction. I hope this IKEA recall or Parodi vases doesn't impact your stash.http://www.ikea.com/ms/en_US/about_ikea/social_environmental/recalls.html

Aussiedawg, as a new comer you've missed this on going, er, I'll call it a joke.
IKEA is a store that sells Scandinavian inspired products. Among the products are small, inexpensive glass vases, one pictured here. I went through a phase of entering a number of IKEA vase pictures in the challenges (see challenges 71, 75, 78, 79, 80, 84, 85, 100, 103 & 106). The joke was that I was addicted to shooting IKEA vases. Lydia says "every challenge" and after all it is an addiction and the joke must go on. IK-Tea is just a play on letters IKEA and tea.

Good one Pops. I'm going to show my ignorance, but what does IK mean and what did Lydia mean by a must for every challenge? Also, what was your background, I can't separate what I assume are the verical and horizontal elements of the background? Its freaking me out. --AussieDawg

Perhaps the jars with varying shades/strengths of tea/coffee? I love it that you're so creative with those things! :) ~Lydia

Well done. A must for all Challenges, Pops. Perhaps I'll pour some wine in my tea. :) ~Lydia
