Valentines from Adagio Teas
60

Oh hai, Adagio tea! Sorry for not visiting recently, I’ve been really busy with school and have been spending most of my time at my friend matcha’s house. Anyway, how’s it going? Oh hey, so, since I have so much of you, I think I’m going to use a little more than a teaspoon this time. Is that okay? Gosh, I hate treating you this way….it’s not like I want to get rid of you or anything…it’s just that we need some time apart, you know? I just feel like you’re suffocating me whenever I look over to the cupboard and see you sitting there, glaring at me. I think having a little room to expand and unfurl and steep will be good for both of us.

Anyway, I’ve thought maybe I’d turn the temperature down a little, since there’s so much of you in the basket. Oh my gosh, no I am not calling you fat! Aww, now you’re being all sweet to me…thanks Valentines. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to call you a tin of ground up cardboard disguised as tea. I’m so glad you’re not all bitter over that either. You’re style seems so different at this temperature…you’re kind of fruity, kind of clean even. Wow, this temperature really suits you! Maybe this won’t be the end of our relationship, after all…

Edit: Wait, duh Shanti, there’s some residual milk in my cup that I forgot about. No wonder this is so much smoother and less bitter than I remember. Sigh. I thought you were different…

Valentines, I called you garbage and I tossed you out the door the first opportunity I had. Farewell, good riddance. Glad to be done with this tea =]

Fwahah, wonder’s whose suffering with my Valentines now. I tossed it into the TTB.

Awww, the tea gave you a fake-out! :( But yeah, Adagio samples are the samples that keep on giving… and giving… long after you want to be rid of them!

LOL…this post cracked me up! I have too many Adagio samples giving me the stink eye. The TTB needs to hurry my way, so I can toss them in!

Haha, I was nice. I only threw one Adagio sampler into the box. I have a bunch of them sitting in my cupboard, just going lalala, someone take me!
