Golden Tea

One of the most exquisite things about Canan is that she is not afraid of trying to turn ordinary objects into little, hidden masterpieces. She brought me some tea, and after I almost finished it and she left the room for a little while I grabbed the gold coloured spray, and said "what's the worst that can happen?". 

I didn't expect it to smell so heavy, and I also didn't expect it to look so weirdly beautiful but they both turned out to be true. The tea now looked like liquid gold, and the tea bag was so shining and reflective that I could see the liquid gold on it. I left it on the table - I hope nobody gets poisoned and they enjoy the sight.
