Breaking my three day string of Alpine Berry as my reading-in-bed cup, I had Peach Bloom last night. It was good – light and peachy – but weaker than I remember it being the last time I had it even though I steep it long enough. I may go back to Alpine Berry tonight. I read a couple more chapters of Beautiful Creatures last night. The plot is feeling rushed along. I’m not really getting into the book.
It seems like all my non-caffeinated nighttime teas are either fruity, chamomile, minty, or a blend of the last two. I’ve been mostly in the mood for the fruity ones. I wish I had more baking flavors teas for nighttime consumption. Things like vanilla, chocolate, caramel, honey, spicy, or otherwise reminiscent of dessert.
Now my most exciting tea news! Yesterday I found out that I won the Maeda-en 2010 Shin-cha Giveaway. I was so excited. I had never won a tea contest before. Then today I found out that I won the LeafSpa Steepster Select comment contest. Double the excitement. I must be lucky this week. I’ve been having a really shitty week this week so it totally made my day both times. Thanks Maeda-en, LeafSpa, and Steepster!

=) I’m glad you’re having a lucky year, malomorgan. Your year is rubbing off on my year a little bit right now by proximity on Steepster. Love your username btw. It sounds like a candy bar to me – a MallowMorgan. I think dark chocolate, caramel, and smoked almonds when I see it.
haha thats interesting. it’s kind of a saying in croatia. when you say: ‘malo morgen’ to someone it’s kinda like saying: ’it’s never gonna happen’… morgen is german word and means tomorrow. malo means a little or small im croatian. it’s a cute ironic thing that people made up as a way to say never.
i got it as a nick kinda by chance. and i’m glad now cuz it turned out to be quite unique even here ;) and i made sure it’s all mine http://malomorgen.com (giggle)
