82

It is a lovely day for tea drinking! After a few weeks of above average temperatures, it is cool today, and will be a bit below average or at average for the next week. Color me happy. 72 degrees is about perfect, especially when it gets down to 55 at night. See? Perfect tea drinking weather. I don’t want to hurry winter along, but those days in the upper 80s and mid 90s make me crabby. I would like a long autumn please.

I have far too much tea to even THINK of placing an order. Tonight I’ve made a pot of this tea. I really enjoy it, but I’m anxious to drink it up so I have room for other teas. Does anyone else get like that? A favorite tea retailer brings out new teas every month or so and I say, “Ooh, that one looks good!” But the tea cabinet is already overflowing, so you force yourself to not order. And when that tea is no longer available, you kick yourself for not ordering. GAHH!

Haha I have been so tempted to place a couple orders too but told myself to get through some stuff first. But you have to ask yourself if you can live with the risk of missing out!

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
