SONNENTOR ADVENT TEA DAY 13
Well, this advent has taught me one or two new German words and also a new flavor.
When I started steeping this, I smelled nettle right away! I am not nearly as good as some of you at identifying aromas and tastes, so I was pretty happy with myself.
Once the cup has finished steeping, the nettle aroma has died away. I taste the linden first and the spearmint with it but not strong. This is a little more floral tasting than the other herbal blends so far.
Overall, it is a nice relaxing cup for bedtime!

Have you been learning German?
I took several years of German in high school and won a fluency award, and the. one semester in college. Many many years passed before I used German again! I taught elementary German to my daughter and for her final lessons we read Im Westen Nichts Neues together, translating as we went.
Now I am teaching three young ladies who are homeschooled and who have also been my music students. I emphasize, I am teaching basics only so don’t be impressed! Ha ha!
We had a lesson today and focused on Christmas words and German holiday traditions. Their mother gave me a copy of A Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady in German for Christmas!
That’s really neat! I find languages so fascinating and I’ve been learning Danish for a few years now (I have Danish ancestry, so my interest developed from that).
I alway like to hear about other people’s journeys with languages too!
