Had a delicious breakfast of this tea taken plain and a slice of pumpkin pie! HIGHLY recommended pairing :) I am surprised how much I adore this tea sans additions. It’s a good tea flavor and excellent vanilla (not too sweet! this goes sweet and creamy with milk and sugar, but plain it’s true and balanced).
We are having a food day at work today to celebrate our Interim Registrar becoming our Registrar! I made French yogurt cake with a Cointreau glaze – I’m thinking boozy = afternoon. ;) I wonder if Earl Grey de la Creme with the cake is too over the top? Nah!! I’ll report back this afternoon :)

No! That does sound good! I don’t think I’ve had a marshmallow in a decade! Do you make marshmallow creme from marshmallows or do you buy it? (I know – I live under a rock!)
So unfair! Maybe this means you should make another for this weekend. That is what it would mean at my house.
I think I am moving on to molasses cookies today :) We are supposed to go on a hike tomorrow and I think they will pack well for the picnic!
I wonder how this tea compares to Harney and Sons Vanilla Black. Have you had it? I have some, and it doesn’t taste like Vanilla Comoro to me. It seems like this is a little less caramel flavor, but it has been a long time since I have had it. Since I have a whole tin sitting there, I guess I should brew some tomorrow!
I haven’t had Harney’s but I’ll send you some of this so you can do a Scientific Test :) I don’t think this GM one tastes like Comoro – the tea flavor is more pronounced and no caramel flavors. I think Kusmi’s Caramel tea actually tastes more like Comoro but alas, caffeine!
Ever try pumpkin pie with marshmallow creme on top instead of Cool Whip? Ooooooh….

Aw shucks – my cake got gobbled up before I had some. No afternoon report :(

Then Golden Moon is probably very similar to H&S Vanilla Black. I will drink it again later today and give some fresh tasting notes on it since I haven’t had it in a while. I do remember that it was very good iced.
