I started subscribing to Graze for snacks because I’m interested in new ways to stuff my face. A few of the snacks on offer feature a free bag of tea plus cookies or whatnot.

I was really excited about the tea, until I got it, and it was this sort of shady English Breakfast mayhem that I had to dump a bunch of vanilla almond milk into to taste okay.

But, oddly, the tea works well with the cookie. Bite of cookie, sip of tea, ahhh.

Kind of like how Robin’s a tool on his own, but he SOMETIMES helps Batman. If Batman got a better sidekick, the universe would be better. No denying it. However, this is Batman’s sidekick, and it works well enough. WE MAKE DO WITH THE WORLD WE HAVE.

Totally unrelated: the song that came on while I was eating this was “What’s Your Fantasy” by Ludacris. I know every lyric to this song, but it’s not appropriate to sing along at work, unless it’s a Friday.

The rules slide on Fridays.

Kind of like how my standards for tea slide when cookies are in play.

That is totally shady for it to have to work with the accompanying tea, but also very clever. But shady.

Super Starling!

I kind of want to write them a letter that’s like “did you include this shitty tea on purpose? Or do you think it’s good? I mean, the cookie’s great with it, but imagine if you had, like, an actual tea there, you know?” But I feel like that’d make me a huge bitch.

Bio

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, crafter, geek, and recent tea convert. I love teas that are sweet, zippy (caffeinated), and hopeful. In concrete terms, that’s usually black or maté tea, with some chocolate/vanilla/berry/nut in there somewhere. If it gives me the dessert experience without the calories, my heart soars.

I’m not a big fan of mint, grass (“yogi farts”), sours, or bitterness.

I’m into the idea of trading to try new things. If you think our flavor profiles coordinate, let me know, and we can swap boxes!
