It's tea time!!

It’s 10:15 PM here and I’m drinking Sanctuary T’s Tropical Maté and really enjoying it (while listening to Eldest on tape). The Maté and the green Rooibos seem to go well together.

I’d happily share it.

It is 5:40 P.M here in Indiana and I am drinking some Stash Earl Grey after I ate a ton of pistachios and some Slim Jims (what? They’re DELICIOUS together! And… shut up!)

I’d be happy to share, I have two giant zip lock bags of assorted teas, and any excuse to buy more variety without the silent judgement of my usually easy-going fiance is good for me. Unfortunately, I feel that many of you would find my cheap and scatter-shot collection to be a little reflecting on my naivete and youth.

I had a pot of Yorkshire Gold around 3pm. today and a piece of pineapple upside down cake I had taken out of the oven a half hour before.

It’s a lazy, cold, Sunday morning in Chicago. The sky is cloudy and gray and there’s snow on the ground. Hot beverages are in order. I just finished a cup of Harney’s Tower of London (thank you Dinosara!) and I’m also working on cups of Rishi Sencha Sakura and Teavana Body + Mind.

3:37pm here in Kansas. This is my first tea of the day as this would be my “morning” since we have all be a bit sickly the past several days. I made the family our daily cinnamon, green tea, lemon, ginger, and honey infusion using real cinnamon and pure raw honey. I left out the calendula today though, still a bit spaced out so I forgot it.

It is 7:41pm in Washington State, and I am just now finishing off the last few sips of the combination of the fifth and sixth infusions of Dong Ding Oolong from TeaSpring. If I had more of it left, I would have happily shared as this is a tea that should not be missed, and what a joy it was to enjoy it.

Now, I am contemplating which tea to enjoy next.

Sipping on some Fragrant Yellow Tea from The London Tea Room. This was a special tea they do not have on their regular menu which the lady highly recommended to me. Being new to loose teas – both then and now, I was eager to try something that was not in their regular stash. Bought several ounces of many types of teas as I live 5 hours away and we do not have a loose tea store close to where I live. I really do like yellow tea, its a little vegetable but not so much. Hubby thinks it tastes and smells slightly of spinach but he enjoys it as much as he enjoys a tea so that is a good thing. I actually enjoy it more with a tad of Tupelo honey added but just a dab.

1:09 am lol! Drinking a cheap supermarket peppermint tea. I dunno if I’d share it just because it’s so ordinary, haha, but if they really wanted some. My only caffeine free tea for night-time unfortunately.

It’s just about to turn 4 am here and my eyes are literal panda eyes, I’ve had the craziest past few days.. And now I hope it ends and I’m starting the quiet peaceful life I live with a cup of chocolate truffle black tea, by covent garden, if anyone wants to drop by, Id love to share this tea, it’s so rich, I’d love some friendly company in the middle of the night, or about 4am :p

Due to some medical issues (that sounds worse than it actually is!), I haven’t been able to have tea for the last 3 days and it’s killing me! My 64oz of daily tea has been replaced with watered down cranberry juice! Definitely not the same! Though drinking 64oz of tea a day might have contributed to this issue I’m in right now in the first place……..
