It’s been a while but I spontaneously found myself craving this tea so I dipped back into my small tin of it – it was a nice cup and honestly I’d all but forgotten the flavour profile so I was a little surprised that it had such a hot cinnamon flavour but I welcomed it – it worked nicely with the sweet almond and creamy vanilla notes. Body was a bit thin for me, but the flavour good! I’ve always thought that this was a really weirdly named tea, but if you don’t think of the name at all it’s nice!
In other news…
I got a hamster over my holiday break! It’s been probably about two and a half years since I last had a pet because, since moving to Montreal, I’ve not been allowed to have pets in my apartments. However, over the break I had a conversation with my landlord to see if she would change her mind about me having a small caged pet based on my rental history and she agreed, so I was finally able to get a small furry friend!
I don’t have photos yet because I’m still in the taming process, and he seems freaked out by my phone – but his name is Gorilla and he’s a mostly black Dalmation Hamster. Once he’s comfortable enough being held out of the cage and around phones I’ll sneak some photos. He’s super fluffy and adorable!

Yay for a pet! I actually bought a house (well, it’s a condo, so an apartment you own but I’m still paying mortgage harhar) in 2019 after I lost a companion animal after 21 years (a bird, only birds and fish were allowed at my previous rental apartment) and they refused to honor a medical note saying I needed another companion animal (and I wanted a cat). And I’d lived there 17 years, never once late on rent. I find it rather abhorrant how awful rentals are about pets. I’m glad yours came around for you! (And you don’t now have a $110k hamster… I tell my cat that’s how much she cost me but truthfully she’s priceless :-)

Yeah, when I was looking for a place to live, I picked the only place I could find that didn’t charge monthly pet rent in addition to regular rent. I totally get why they charge it though because my cats have absolutely destroyed some stuff, so I’m sort of dreading those fees when I move out.
