Rosalie Liddle Crawford has woven together her passion for storytelling, community, and history into a meaningful career as a writer, musician and filmmaker.

Growing up in farming and horticulture communities in New Zealand, Rosalie experienced the Kiwi habit of having a cup of tea five or six times a day. 

If people call in during the day or evening, the usual friendly ritual is to "put on the jug" and "make a cuppa" as part of the social interaction. If someone is distressed or feeling anxious, again, making a cup of freshly-brewed tea is the norm in rural farming New Zealand.

This book isn't just about tea, it's about connecting with others - Rosalie Liddle Crawford.
