Fuck yes!
Just had an over the phone interview with a Paint Warehouse, and I totally freaking nailed it! Although, now that means that I have to do an in person interview – but I think I’ll do a good job on that, too. Fingers crossed. If I did get it, I’d be doing 30-40 hours a week at above minimum wage – so HOORAY FOR THAT! That would mean more tea money sooner than later!
Although, downside is that it’s half retail and half labour – and I’ve never had a labour heavy job, although I did have a few labour intensive days at Calendar Club when we were doing merchandising/store set up and then for the take down.
Wish me luck, regardless!
Anyway, to the tea! Recently I’ve been feeling a little love/hate with this blend. When it’s right, it’s so right – like a refreshing spearmint sprinkled Creamsicle. But when it’s wrong…
It just sits with you so uncomfortably and tastes like “ew”. Just, sour and funky.
This cup (2 1/2 tsp. of leaf in 8 oz. of boiling water, steeped for five minutes) didn’t get a whole lot of the mint, despite my vigorously shaking the tin. That sort of makes it feel like this cup is missing something. Also, it’s rather tart/sour today, for whatever reason, and relatively Gooseberry heavy. Despite that – it’s still pretty agreeable and not the worst cup I’ve made.
Quite contently sipping away at it :)

WOOHOO! Congrats and I hope you get the job!
Good luck! Fingers crossed!
Yeah yeah!
You are full of good news today between this and your dentist appoint! Congrats! I shall keep my fingers crossed that everything goes well on both fronts.
As for the tea, I actually really liked this at first and then just didn’t. I cold brewed it to use up the rest of the leaf and actually preferred it that way.
I haven’t had it cold brewed in a while, but it’s in my “que” to try that way. I have like 10 I want to eventually cold brew – most of them whites.
I am iffy about cold brewing whites because they can get bitter I find. Unless they are Ombrelle de Papier. That is a special white.
Congrats!
Fingers crossed! :D
