250 gram Mandala Silver Buds Raw - 2008 from Mandala Tea
94

Early morning cuppa. Instead of the usual in-your-face bold cup of caffeine overload (coffee) that I would normally go for, I decided to brew up something gentle to ease me into the day. It’s a peaceful morning here in Pennsylvania, the birds are chirping and there’s a light fog as I sip this mellow goodness and stare into the woods behind my house. Life is good. Good morning Steepsterites!

You’re way too young for a rocking chair, but after reading that, I want to come rest my weary, saggy bones in one wherever you are :)

I may be young, but I’m an old soul. :)

Yes you are Kwinter, my granddaughter is an oldsoul too. (she’s not writing reviews this week because she got a scholarship to an adult music camp in Pennsylvania and flew away on Wed.)

Bonnie, I am a musician, too. What does your granddaughter play? That’s wonderful that she got a scholarship for the music camp!

She’s a composer and conductor…aged 16 (if you see who follows me she’s oldsoul)

Whaa?! I had no idea she was your granddaughter! That’s cool. Congratulations to her.

Cool! She’ll smile knowing that you followed her not knowing! She writes jazz, orchestral,choral and band music and arranges but where she is this week is Liturgical Music for the Orthodox Church which is primarily Byzantine and all A cappella (this is the correct spelling). She has been working on a Cherubic Hymn and has written a few other pieces. Here’s an example of a Cherubic Hymn we sing (GREAT choir) http://youtu.be/GDCwdreKpXI
