This week has been rough. Next week will be worse. So I decided it was time to splurge on an old favorite tea.

I am looking forward to my Damann Freres advent calendar. I’ve had only a couple of their teas, and one I did’t especially enjoy. But I’ve done the David’s 24 days of tea a couple of years now, and it seems like most of the teas are the same so I thought it was time to try something else. Just a few days to go!

A friend sent me an Adagio advent box … December is a long time coming this year!

Sorry it’s been a tough week, with only the prospect of tougher ahead. Wishing you some quiet moments and good tea!

I may or may not have been doing tea advent calendars since the beginning of November… ;)

@gmathis: Tomorrow!!
@TreeGal: Thank you. I managed to re-arrange some things I I have a few hours on Tuesday free. That should help me deal with these 16 days.
@Cameron B.: LOL I’ve been a good girl and not even peeked at my advent calendar yet.

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.
