and then as i waited for the pizza order to arrive my boything and i drank:
Jane Austen Mafia
oh my this one is a bit strange, in a good way. i almost smell a little alcohol on the nose?
it intrigues me!
and that means it’s going to keep me interested.
watching vintage sherlock.

Yay for tea tasting parties! I had one on Thursday with my friend too :D we also swapped a few and I am excited to try them!
Party! Sounds like a blast!
Thats a LOT of tea! :)
Wow! All this tea? Sounds more like tea marathon! :-)
Woaaah. That sounds amazing.
That is so much tea!! They all sound so good too!
Wow, that’s impressive!
to explain in more detail, i usually get out 3 teapots, two glass gongfus that hold about 8oz each, and one forlife teapot that holds 14oz. then i let the guest start to choose!
i line up 4 sets of cups and we start to brew!
pour water for one pot, time it, pour between the cups, begin brewing the next tea, as we sample the first, smelling some more teas, drink half a cup and add raw milk to the last half to see how it changes, about 4 oz of each tea, tea after tea.
i gave Regina 2 types of tea to take home, and my sister maybe 6 or 7.
i buy gold foil bags from carytown teas and use them to share samples with friends. not the cheapest solution at 45cents each but still very affordable and i like sending people home with quality, knowing the tea won’t go wrong before they drink it because it’s protected.
(i think i got my friend hooked and we are gonna do it again this coming weekend! YAY!)
I wanna go to your place for this amazing tea party!!
This is a serious tea party with all of those teas! :)
