I had this with breakfast before going bridal gown shopping yesterday! There are a few possibilities in the works, but we haven’t settled on one quite yet. I loved the woman whose house it was (she has a show room set up in her basement and the whole place is lavish and gorgeous and I could have wandered among the racks for hours).

You know, although I can enjoy this tea, I won’t feel the need to restock it once I’m out. Not even because there’s necessarily anything wrong with it, but mostly because I’ve exhausted my love affair with it, and there are just so many more teas to try and love. So although it was definitely a good cream earl grey, it may be a while before it works its way into my cupboard again once I finish what I have. It’s rare that I want to continuously restock a tea, it would seem. I can only think of a few.

Good luck finding a gown!

I feel that way too. There are so many teas out there to try, so if you restock, it either gets ignored, or you get to try less new ones. Good luck dress shopping!!

Well, it’s been slightly over six months since I’ve joined steepster, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this community. Like many of you, I began my foray into the world of loose-leaf tea by discovering David’s Tea, and although I’ve ventured out and have discovered many other companies that I’m extremely fond of, there are still many of David’s teas that I hold close to my heart and I will always appreciate it as a starting point for my journey.

As for my preferences, I tend to prefer bold black tea, flavoured and unflavoured alike, and I almost always take my blacks with cream and sugar. This isn’t to say that I don’t enjoy a good, flavoured white though, and I’m slowly making my way through the incredibly confusing world of oolongs and greens. I am also not a fan of rooibos, although I am starting to suspect green rooibos may be ok, but you know how it is: when you’ve decided you detest a certain ingredient, you’ll notice it everywhere—perhaps even where it doesn’t exist!

Things other than tea: I’m engaged to be married to my best friend, and feel like the richest woman on the planet because of it. I am also a veracious reader, and I also happen to have an obsession with fragrances, and have amassed quite a collection, although it pales in comparison to some collections out there! As a result of this obsession, I also follow several fragrance blogs, and am always up for a chat about scent. I’m also almost completely blind, and this does indeed mean that I come complete with a guide dog, who unlike me, hales from the sunny California campus of Guide dogs for the Blind. I think I’ve rambled on long enough, but if there’s anything you’d like to know or if you just feel like chatting to someone, please don’t hesitate to send me a message.
