Wow, this was really, really creamy and anise heavy tonight. It almost totally buried all the pear and base flavour although ultimately both were still partly present. I enjoyed the cup but was overall hoping for something that was a little more balanced out.
And now my whole living room smells very strongly of anise.
I think I’ve asked before, but is anyone else watching The 100? A tumblr user made a VERY cool gif based on a suggestion I made, and now I have all the feels. I just want there to be like four more seasons released all at once tomorrow so I have something to mass stream; I hate watching TV shows as they actually air. My heart can’t take it.
Cool thing about this fandom, though, is that pretty well EVERYONE agrees on the ships in it. Like, it’s pretty much a universal constant that the fans agree Bellamy and Clarke are perfect for each other; they compliment one another and bring about the best in each other but are two solid, unique characters who can function on their own too. I mean, there are other totally cute pairing in the series (Octavia and Lincoln, Finn and Raven, etc). but there are really no ship wars.
It’s beautiful!

My roommate, boyfriend, and I all watch The 100, separately. Haven’t watched the new season yet though. I’m not overly into the show for whatever reason – it’s taking a lot for things to grab me lately.
I really like it because it reminds me a little bit of LOST – it has the same survivalist feeling and intensity/drama but with a cool space element. You can even compare both the Grounders and the Mountain Men to The Others, in lost. And the character growth/development is very well done in my opinion. I hope you get into it – it’d be nice to have someone to gush with about it!
I never actually watched Lost – my boyfriend recently started it (I believe he’s somewhere in season 2 now), and I can understand the comparison. Perhaps I should watch that one too (though I just started Buffy, hahahaha. Wanted some easy-watching slightly spooky stuff.)
Oh man; you have to watch both! Those are both my ALL TIME favourite TV shows ever, though BTVS slightly more. Just slightly though. LOST definitely has a much wider range of characters, and is harder to follow along with (it’s the kind of show where if you miss an episode you’re FUCKED) but the payoff is so worth it, and there’s so much feels! Season Three is my favourite season, for that one. Who are your BFs favourite characters? I always and to the end adored Charlie and Sawyer, but Claire, Hurley, Jin, and Kate were favourites too. And then later on Desmond and Ben. BTVS is great too; and the Scooby Gang gives me uber feels to, but in a different way. I was a fan of the later seasons of BTVS (four onwards) but I’m a HARDCORE Spuffy shipper and those are the seasons that feature him more heavily. I actually got to meet James Marsters (Spike) at Comic Con, and he’s amazing in person!
LOL. I’ll probably focus on one, then the other. I’m in Season 2 of BTVS right now, and I saw that Angel is also on Netflix (though I don’t know its exact relationship to the former (timeline-wise, I assume it’s about Angel lol)… I’m sure it will become clear once I start it. I do know that there’s some sort of something between Buffy and Spike, but that has yet to become clear (I wasn’t completely oblivious to the premise of the show… just mostly. I believe it was deemed inappropriate for me to watch by the parents, and we only had one TV anyhow). It’s neat that you got to meet him in person :D
As for Lost, we haven’t discussed it much, but I’m sure he has favourites. He gets more into shows than I do, I’d say, and also has more time to watch things somehow.
