Trisha was a cousin of the author (Elda), but was lovingly thought of as an older sister. She attended many family reunions and enjoyed the jokes and puns that were always a part of the conversations. Her wisdom guided and helped all who knew her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen she died, Elda wanted to do something that would help honor her. Trisha was a writer and always encouraged the family to write. So, it seemed appropriate that Elda would write a book for Trisha, who was also a lover of tea, and incorporate some humor as well as wisdom. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach reflection includes at least one quote that helps in the exploration of the meaning of each \"-ty\" word. At the end of the examination of the word, there is a page to write personal thoughts. Some of the words are lighthearted, such as the study about \"jocularity,\" and others inspire self-examination, like \"paucity.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong with the word study, there is a photograph of a teapot or teacup that enhances the word study. These photographs were taken by Andy. He takes mainly scenic pictures of the oceans and mountains, so this was a departure for him. The photographs include some beautiful handcrafted teapots and cups from around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book concludes with this thought: \"I hope you have been encouraged and challenged as you read through this book.
