Unlike the seasonal changes in fruits and veggies, the consumption of coffee and tea remains constant year round. It's no surprise that even though warm weather is almost here, the Yum Market on TeamSugar is full of coffee and tea accessories. From teapots to cappuccino machines and coffee beans, you are eager to enjoy the rich brown beverages. Being an avid espresso drinker, I love this floral print espresso cup and saucer set. CupcakeGal10 saved these teeny cups that scream Spring! If you're crazy about coffee and tantalized by tea, browse the collection below.

I always joke that I love tea accessories way more than I like tea. I simply can't resist the cute cups and saucers, decorative boxes of teabags, and delicate infusers. But this Crate & Barrel Tea Bag Squeezer ($4.95) seems a bit much. It's a special tong-like gadget used to squeeze the remaining liquid from a tea bag - you know, like you usually do using a spoon and your hand. What do you think? Do you see yourself using this gadget?

What better way to embrace the arrival of springtime than to spruce up your kitchen with a few fun florals? I just remembered I've got to change my winter table setting into my spring one and substitute the black leather placemats for mint green satin ones and the white candles for pink and yellow ones. Changing your table scape is one way to freshen up the look of your kitchen, another way is to purchase a few essential items that scream spring with their floral patterns, pastel colors, and refreshing newness.

A perfect example of this is the printed flask that thoroughlymodern saved in the Yum Market on TeamSugar. This container is so beautiful that I may have to get one for myself, how chic would it be to pull this out at a romantic picnic?!

The season must have been on Atkoester's mind when she was hunting the web for yum marks, because she found a whole bunch of fabulous Spring cooking accessories like blue china bowls and pink flowered mugs. However my favorite of her recent discoveries were these pretty patterned preppy plates. Add a few colorful plates to your everyday set and it's like an instant makeover.
