Backlog from this morning! I had a busy day today and am only now getting home after leaving the house at around two today. I brought this with me for my job interview (at Fuddruckers), to kind of keep me awake.
I made it as an iced/cold tea using my usual method (steep one extra strong cup and then do a second steep that usually tastes more watery, resulting in an average taste). This was my first time drinking this one iced, and I really liked it as an iced/cold tea. I feel like the chocolate, raspberry, and chicory flavours were more enhanced than usual and the taste of the almond and mate were more muted.
I think my job interview went well, but I don’t want to be cocky about it and therefore jinx it. If I DO get the job though, I’ll be working hours ranging from 6:30 AM until 5:00 PM which is REALLY early for me, especially in comparison to what I’m used to. The guy who did my interview was pretty cool – we actually ended talking about tea and whether tea is better than coffee (it totally is). He said he’s an Earl Grey fan, and his friends are green tea fans even though he hates green tea (something we have in common).
At the university, I went to an event called Queers and Ladders with Robyn, which was pretty fun. Basically, it was a games night for LGBTQ and allies and it was really cool meeting new people, especially since I know so few here in Saskatoon. They’re doing a movie night tomorrow and showing a movie/documentary called “Call Me Kuchu” (anyone know of it?) about the first openly gay man in Uganda. I think I’m gonna go tomorrow with Robyn again, so looking forward to that.
I also gave the rest of my White Peony sample from Teavivre to Robyn today, so I guess I can remove that one from my cupboard.

Jinxing sure does seem real, doesn’t it? I swear the very few times in my life when I actually felt confident about getting a job, it didn’t happen, and vice versa. What is with that?
Those are crappy hours, though. I once had a job that started at 6am, so I had to get up by 4:30. Shudder.
But I’ll still cross my fingers for you!
Good luck! Those are tough hours, but I’m sure you’d get used to it fairly quickly. I never thought I could start work at 7 and I managed. Managed well enough at least.
