My my, it’s already been a bit of a hectic morning. I am really, really sick of this weather. But in good news, we’re meeting with our wedding planner this evening, so that’s kind of exciting. But I also have cramps that are fairly distracting, so that kind of puts a damper on things.

This tea shines its brightest with milk and sugar, I feel, as it did this morning. It’s still a great combination of jasmine and a nice malty base, which you wouldn’t necessarily imagine going well together except that it works wonderfully. I’m starting to think I have a bit too much of this tea left, but it’s also a fairly solid breakfast tea, so I imagine it’ll get used up sooner or later. I also just placed my second h and s order, and ordering tea pretty much always makes my day.

Haha oh god, planning a wedding was way, way beyond me (procrastinator+genrally being overwhelmed = it so, so wasn’t going to happen without one). and Courtney, that’s definitely one way to do it, although I kind of want the wedding experience…minus the planning and all the social awkwardness

Courtney

I’m sure it’ll be amazing! When’s the date?

Sil

I’m pretty sure that my other half and i have decided on wedding at city hall and then going to a bowling alley or something for the evening to just hang out haha

Courtney

That’s awesome Sil :)

keychange

Sil, that sounds relaxing and lovely. :). And Courtney, the date is still to be determined…we’re just that organized! LOL

Sil

yeah…i’d elope but i do want to celebrate with friends..but in a casual style. Like a barbeque in the park where people can play music, toss around a frisbee, have some good food…

Courtney

Ah yes fair enough. I think we’ll elope somewhere, since we have absolutely no family out here – then next time we’re home we’ll probably have a BBQ in the backyard kind of thing.

Well, it’s been slightly over six months since I’ve joined steepster, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this community. Like many of you, I began my foray into the world of loose-leaf tea by discovering David’s Tea, and although I’ve ventured out and have discovered many other companies that I’m extremely fond of, there are still many of David’s teas that I hold close to my heart and I will always appreciate it as a starting point for my journey.

As for my preferences, I tend to prefer bold black tea, flavoured and unflavoured alike, and I almost always take my blacks with cream and sugar. This isn’t to say that I don’t enjoy a good, flavoured white though, and I’m slowly making my way through the incredibly confusing world of oolongs and greens. I am also not a fan of rooibos, although I am starting to suspect green rooibos may be ok, but you know how it is: when you’ve decided you detest a certain ingredient, you’ll notice it everywhere—perhaps even where it doesn’t exist!

Things other than tea: I’m engaged to be married to my best friend, and feel like the richest woman on the planet because of it. I am also a veracious reader, and I also happen to have an obsession with fragrances, and have amassed quite a collection, although it pales in comparison to some collections out there! As a result of this obsession, I also follow several fragrance blogs, and am always up for a chat about scent. I’m also almost completely blind, and this does indeed mean that I come complete with a guide dog, who unlike me, hales from the sunny California campus of Guide dogs for the Blind. I think I’ve rambled on long enough, but if there’s anything you’d like to know or if you just feel like chatting to someone, please don’t hesitate to send me a message.
