Thanks guys although it turns out what I really needed luck with was getting to the interview. Somehow my GPS managed to reroute me to the location at the other side of the city only for me to realize too late, freak out, call my interviewer and reschedule, and then cry alone in a parking lot just from the stress of missing the interview. So now that is over and I am back home.

Aww, that’s awful. I hope it works out.

Oh no, that’s too bad. Hoping the rescheduled one goes well! : )

Toronto’s really awful that way. As a result of amalgamation there are tons of streets with the same name in different parts of the city. As well, as we all know there are streets like Lakeshore that become blvd and road depending where you are. Its still a major problem for EMS. I’m not sure if that’s what happened to you, but I feel for you being late for things, missing transportation is a reoccurring nightmare for me. Sorry about your interview. It’s nice that they rescheduled. Best of luck in your search!

My cupboard has grown exponentially since joining this site and I have a lot to share. Feel free to snoop through my cupboard and message me if anything interests you – I am always happy to swap!

For me, flavored teas are definitely my sweet spot. I will most often reach for black teas and rooibos or honeybush blends but I do keep some flavored whites and greens around for when the mood strikes. I have a few herbals/tisanes but most of the time I find myself disappointed by them as they often smell deliciously sweet and then end up tasting tart/sour. I have a little bit of an aversion to pu’erh and oolong teas. I am also wary of florals, earl greys, and chai teas. I do not like overpowering citrus flavors nor do I usually like hibiscus, licorice or chamomile. I love dessert teas – caramel, vanilla, toffee, cookie, cream, and other sweet flavors make me smile. Fruits like strawberry, peach, mango, and pineapples will often catch my attention as well.

I have also realized that although I really enjoy adding frothed milk to some of my teas, if I do not like the tea with zero additives (just in plain water without milk or sugar), I probably won’t drink it. The one exception is flavored matchas which I will happily drink in cold milk if I do not like it mixed with hot water. My theory is if the tea can’t stand on its own then it is not for me and I will more than likely try to swap it out for something else.

Tea Ratings Guide (as of December 10, 2017)
90-100 Teas I NEED on hand at all times
80-89 Teas I want to keep around for a cup every now and then
70-79 Teas I am glad I have around and can experiment with but probably don’t need more than what’s in my cupboard
60-69 Teas I would not turn down a cup of from a friend but that would probably be enough
50-59 Teas I can see why someone would enjoy but are not for me
Under 50 Teas I really did not like and most likely got dumped
