Hours at a training meeting today were brightened by the thermos of this tea.

Learned today that the number one identifier of abuse is isolation. Sometimes this world makes my heart hurt.

What could make a Sunday afternoon more comfortable? Ah yes, a maple cream tea latte sweetened with maple syrup. Perfection. How will I ever drink this tea any other way?!?

Downton Abbey marathon in preparation of the series 3 premiere tonight!! Anyone else excited??

Bright cheerful Sunday morning. Loving the blend of citrus and ginger. Yum.

Now time to make another pot and spend some time reading.

It’s me with a new profile picture. My mom and I spent the day enjoying lunch at the Dragonfly Artisan Tea Cottage in Sylvania and shopping. It was lovely.

My mom had me choose the tea today because she says I’m the tea expert :) I chose this because my mom loves fruit teas. It is wonderfully fruity and sweet on its own. I’m learning to enjoy fruit teas more. If you’re ever in the Toledo area, the Dragonfly is the place to go!!

drank Blueberry Pie by The Whistling Kettle
219 tasting notes

Green tea is growing on me. This was one of the 6 tea samples I received from the Whistling Kettle today.

When I sip it it tastes very creamy and then leaves with a grassy green tea flavor. The blueberry notes in it are wonderful. I really like how complementary all these flavors are together. Yum!! 0 calorie pie for a new year resolution.

Absolutely excited to receive this in the mail today. The Whistling Kettle had it in a flash sale the other day on this and I picked up a bunch of samples too. Looking forward to trying them all.

I am not a tea purist. I added a bit of milk and sugar to this delicious dessert tea after noticing it was a bit bitter. I think a 4 minute steep was a bit too much for the delicate flavors. There is an interesting play with floral and maple notes. I like it. Looking forward to my next cup.

Needed a pick me up. These gloomy days are bringing me down.

Cuppa in hand, flat bread pizza in the oven, MI-5 on the tele = exactly what I need.

Still enjoying the sample of this Nicole sent me. It’s definitely a top tea for me. I like how smooth and simple it is. A pleasant cuppa for a dreary day.

I love Boston Tea Co. stuff. Haven’t tried a bad one yet.

I had wanted to order more of this, but they are out of stock online. I hope they restock soon. I only have enough for about 2 more cups.

drank Lemon Chiffon by Della Terra Teas
219 tasting notes

Lemon Heaven is what this tea should be named. It’s a perfectly smooth and delicious rooibos. It reminds me of Adagio’s Lemon Cloud. It also reminds me of the amazing lemon meringue pie my grandmother used to make. WOW! Definitely a dessert tea worth trying. YUM! It made my Flikr Happy365 photo for the day. A bright tea for a dreary winter’s day.

Thank you LiberTEAS for this treat. Oolong is a favorite of mine.

Lovely bright floral and honey notes. Smooth and fresh. I love how mild the floral flavor is. It doesn’t overwhelm me. It is perfectly balanced with the honey. Brilliant!
