I got a big envelope in the mail from gmathis right before my biopsy results appointment.
First thing the doctor said was, “I have good-ish news.” I’ll take that! Spot precancerous and burning it off when biopsy heals. Yay!

Came home and smelled the tea gmathis sent and almost had a conniption. Oh my goodness. The aroma reminded me a bit of Lemon Swirl from Cuppageek. This is sooooo lemony and creamy smelling.

I made a big pot of it and cut up some fresh strawberries, drizzled them with chocolate sauce, popped in fridge to harden the sauce into a shell, and served with a shortbread cookie on the side.

Lemony and creamy just like the aroma, decadence in a cup. No cream or sugar but I bet it would totally be a full on dessert replacement that way.

This is going on my wishlist. What a tea.

Thank you, gmathis!

Edited to add: Found what I believe is this very same tea at Tin Roof Teas. Order placed so we shall see. They sell it as Lemon Biscotti but the description says almond panna cotta.

Hugs to you! I had a lesion on my liver microwaved. It’s called ablation. Sounds funny, but it was easy peasy, didn’t feel a thing. And the lemon tea sounds amazing!

Wow, Maddie, that sounds leagues harder! Mine is surface but in the area where I had radiation, so I concerned about how fast it might change. It was caught early, though! Whew! Hugs back at you!

gmathis

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
