drank Cranberry Pear by DAVIDsTEA
768 tasting notes

I have plenty of advent calendar and 12 days of Christmas teas to drink, but tonight I wanted this one. I’ve spent many evenings drinking this tea to fuel me to write. Tonight was that exact situation. I still have a decent amount of this left. I’ve been hoarding it since David’s isn’t making it any more. (oh, no, they would rather come up with new, cloyingly sweet stevia-laden teas instead of selling this favorite. Not that I’m bitter) Anyway, This book is due to the editor tomorrow night and tonight I finally hit that magical moment in a writer’s life. I wrote THE END. Thank you, Cranberry Pear.

hahahha, yes, exactly that. don’t sell the favourites but rather sell the over-priced false tasting ones that all taste the same. end rant

And yeah you for reaching THE END and the beginning and the middle! Congrats!

Thanks, Evol. That blasted thing is off to the editor and out of my hair for at least a week. Let the holiday fun begin! (right after I clean. And put up the tree. And sleep. Please, dear Lord, let me get some sleep!)

Few things are more joyful to a writer than hitting SEND on a finished manuscript! Hope you’re recovering and continuing to celebrate!

Evol Ving Ness

Sleep, yes, I feel you on that. I hope you are getting some seriously good rest.

Bio

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.
