We’re starting to get settled into our new home, well for the short term at least (prior to having to move back out for the big extension project that will likely start in a few months). We received the keys to the house at the beginning of the week, and we’ve been going going going ever since. It’s nice to finally be able to take a quick tea break to visit with my fellow steepster friends!
I must confess I don’t watch Dr Who…I have no idea what it’s about. I generally don’t watch much t.v., but when I do, it’s usually something that makes me laugh, like a sitcom, or Ellen, or something on the Home and Garden Network (Property Brothers is my favorite right now). So I know nothing about the angel on this package, or why she is weeping. I bought this tea solely based on the fact that it has the word caramel in the description…Dr. Who fans – don’t judge me ;)
This tea is making my living room smell delicious. I’m getting a lot of black tea, and the butter toffee caramel flavor is much more subtle than I anticipated. I think I may need to read some other tealogs for and see if any of you have figured out a way to coax the toffee flavor to the forefront. I really was hoping for more toffeeness, but when it comes to caramel flavored teas I like it front and center, I mean, borderline obnoxious. As I brewed this, it would suit people who prefer more subtle flavors.
Back to cleaning and unpacking for me… and enjoying tea, of course.
Claire, I believe you’re doing the moving thing also – cheers! I hope it’s going well for you :)

I also like obnoxiously-flavoured caramel/toffee teas :D Unfortunately, although the first time i had this, it tasted great when it cooled, my second cup was pretty meh. I’ll have to see if I can repeat the results of the first time…
I think explaining this episode of Dr Who would make it just sound silly but it was truly one of the creepiest things I have seen on TV.
Well, from what I’ve heard “Blink” is a pretty good introduction episode for the curious. That or “Eleventh Hour”, but that’s not as WeepingAngel relevant.
Woo! for getting the keys!
Exciting that you’re settling into a new home! And I’m the same way. I like the flavours to go POW!
Doctor Who has plenty of comedic moments :)
@Kittenna – If you figure out the trick, keep me posted please
@KS,Cavocorax and Andie – I’ll have to check it out some time. I hope it’s not one of those shows that you have to see in order to understand what’s going on.
@Incendiare – It’s very exciting. Keeping me super busy, but fun nonetheless.
