I still have a few bags of this. I had an AWFUL day at work. I have tomorrow and Friday off so I was cramming to get everything done today. I had a schedule of what had to get done and when I would do it. It was completely do-able. I even made sure I had time in my schedule for the unexpected things that tend to crop up. But it was one dumpster fire after another. Of the 20 items on my list I completed three. I left (35 minutes late) and decided to have tea. I don’t drink alcohol, but days like me make me think I should.

This tea popped out at me. It has a mild, pleasing flavor. I wouldn’t mind getting more, but this was a one time purchase at TJ Maxx, so I will enjoy what I have left. Here’s to a 4 days weekend! Those other 17 items will just have to wait until Monday.

It’s almost time for Advent Calendars! I have my Bird & Blend herbal one ready to go!

Sorry about the wonky workday!

I feel you with work stuff. Once I return to the office (as I am on sick-leave) I will have a week long list that needs to be done. And if I remember correctly, I will have only a few days for that.

Schedules are a good thing though and I do them sometimes as well.

Yay for advent calendar tea! Enjoy your weekend before returning to the work you know is still there.

I bought this one for a friend and she loved it! I keep meaning to try it, myself, but I keep forgetting. It’s just as well—my tea cupboard runneth way, way over.

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.
