This is a super cozy cup and so easy to drink. Trading the smoke of Outlaw for chocolate, this blend almost makes me like chocolate cherries and remember that Black Forest Cakes exist and are some of the few cakes I like.
This tea is also a nice consolation for an eventful Canadian Thanksgiving (only three of us this year). First, my father accidentally poured the gravy into a pot with soap (ahhh… he’s the saddest about the loss of gravy). Then I placed a stirring fork on a hot stove element and then touched said fork with my middle finger, somehow. My finger is currently in a nice cold glass of water… but I at least I have tea!
Taken with oat milk.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving, and I hope your finger feels better!
Thank you! My finger shall recover but I need to up my multi-dish cooking/baking game for next time lol
Happy Thanksgiving.
Sorry about the owie, but hope the misadventures make you smile in years to come! (Multi-cooking is beyond me. If I get two dishes on the table at the same time, I feel like a MasterChef.)
Happy Thanksgiving! the very best holiday of the year. Sorry about the mishaps. Yesterday, I poured boiling water over my hand while carrying the over full kettle. I suffered for about half an hour while dousing the injured hand with ice water and then soaking it in epsom salted bath. Then, it was fine. I hope your suffering is brief and the celebration is joyful.
Ouch, Evol Ving Ness! I’m glad to hear your hand is healing well. Oh, yeah – mine was super minor, just salt in the wound that is cooking mishaps (RIP gravy). Our Turkey was done an hour before any of the other dishes and none of us realized our miscalculations until too late. Then we danced, haha
I am seriously considering celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving in the future. Ours is so close to Christmas! Happy Thankssgiving, and I hope your finger feels much better!
Sounds like a pretty great celebration, CrowKettle.
Thank you, ashmanra. Truly, I can’t see why you wouldn’t. The timing is perfect. The weather is perfect. And then, Black Friday turns into a holiday on its own. And the Christmas season gets its proper due.
@ashmanra, why not celebrate both? They may both be called Thanksgiving but they’ve both got their own unique spirit. The Canadian one is pretty laid back and “do what you want and be where you want but in ‘fall’ fashion” kind of deal (and reflect in that bit of grace on the cusp of the weather committing to bad-not-good and while local produce still being fresh-ish).
One year my whole family was abroad without me so my bestie roommate and I decided to go out for “Thanksgiving” BBQ Duck and Mapo Tofu lol
Thanksgiving BBQ duck and Mapo Tofu sound glorious! And CrowKettle, you’ve summarized it all beautifully.
