Etsy Tea Advent Calendar Day 9:

Wow, time is flying. Christmas is not that far away, and I haven’t done anything yet. Last year at this time I was resting between my infusion chemo treatments and my radiation/oral chemo treatments, so I did literally nothing for Christmas. I had 12 days off between chemo and radiation, and I was so sick I could barely get out of bed. I swore this year I would go whole hog with decorating. But … I have a new kitten. She is 6 months old now, so about fully grown, but still with a kitten’s play drive. And Little Miss Dottie is absolutely wild. So, maybe 2022?
On to the tea!

Here is another tea I’ve never had by a company I have not heard of. I am not fond of floral teas, which I assume this one is. In my head I relate floral teas to the little rose soaps my grandmother set out for company. This tea does not taste soapy, thank goodness. It is not sour or bitter or astringent, so I give it a mild recommendation. If you enjoy floral herbal teas this might be just the tea for you. AS it is. I think I will finish this cup and then brew myself a cup of peppermint tea.

You’ve got plenty to celebrate, decorations or not!

I think a kitten is a whole celebration in itself! Probably the best decoration you could have!

Awww, what does your little terror look like? Tabby? Calico?

Michelle

She looks like she’s thinking of some mischief to get into!

Little Miss Dottie is calming down somewhat, but not enough to have anything breakable in plain sight.

gmathis

What a sweet face!

ashmanra

Oh gosh, she is adorable in the first pic but the face and attitude (cat-itude) in the second is just the best!

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
