My Bird & Blend herbal advent calendar has been a bit of a bust for me. I have had only one so far that I liked: Apple Strudel from last night. My darned nose is sealed shut and I have a headache. No sore throat or cough, no dripping nose. Just a tender feeling face, aching teeth and plugged nose. I figure it is allergy/sinus related.

So I dug into my tea drawer to find something to drink tonight and came up with this one for tonight. Really nice flavor. Sweet, smooth, warming and comforting. Just like the name says: a Cozy Cuppa.

Ever try a Vicks Vapo Rub shower? Just a glop on a washcloth and drop it on the shower floor. One of our go-to home remedies. Hope by the time you read this, there’s no longer a need for one!

Thank you , everyone! I turned my humidifier on high, used Afrin and took two benedryl. I slept well. A little stuff right now but breathing through my nose!

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.
